Gays launch YouTube campaign and company respond .. Learn the details of the crisis
YouTube removed the ads on the anti-gay Steven Crowder after it continued to be attacked and launched a campaign against it because of the antithesis content of the channel.
The crisis began when the best programmer, Carlos Maza, detailed the continuing abuse he faced from "Uttiouber" Steven Kroeder, who has more than 3.8 million subscribers on the podium, but YouTube's response was that the criticism was an example of controversy rather than harassment.
But YouTube later retracted its position, announcing that it would suspend ads from the channel until Crowder removed a controversial link. The company said it reached that decision after deciding that the Crowd channel broke YouTube's rules.
YouTube also explained that the channel violated Partner Program policies, although the company did not mention the specific policies it violated.
YouTube's guidelines state that "content that is intentionally published in order to humiliate a person, provide negative or negative personal comments or videos about someone else, or incite others to harass or threaten individuals on YouTube or to stop it" is prohibited.
The hate speech policy also prohibits content that promotes violence or hatred against individuals or groups for characteristics including race and sexual orientation.
The site also states that users can not use stereotypes that incite or promote hate, be it through speech, text, or images.
