But you can still have your youtube username, mine remained. Quoting: shyrlymyrly I closed my YT channel months ago for their censorship of other channels, not that it mattered to anyone but me. But my phone was either going to be Apple or Android, and the former is just too expensive and closed. Have I now become your enemy by telling you the truth? (Gal. 4:16) |

Quoting: Keep2theCode Who needs the NSA when there's Google? Perhaps NSA = Google... Two heads of the same hydra, most likely. They're all melding together. People say "get off Farcebook", but it doesn't matter anymore. To live and breathe is to be monitored. They even have drones and listening devices the size of insects or grains of sand, so if you go off-grid they can still find you. Have I now become your enemy by telling you the truth? (Gal. 4:16) |

(OP) User ID: 20545539 United States 11/06/2013 09:40 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yep. But people who complained about it either got banned or just went with it anyway. So Google really has no reason to listen to anybody. Just like FB they know people will put up with just about anything. Have I now become your enemy by telling you the truth? (Gal. 4:16) |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 815535 United States 11/06/2013 10:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I wanted to comment on a YT video today. Google+ kept popping up a nag box to force me to "agree to Pages terms". Apparently it is now required to have a Google+ account, a Page, and use your real name in order to comment on YT videos. Soon they'll probably not even let you view videos, much less comment. Quoting: Keep2theCode It's the Farcebook of the wwworld. Comments: [link to techland.time.com] dUH. google plus is desperate for views... so they are trying to make it so that everything connects to google plus. Even posting fake content from your you tube channel to make it look like you are actively using your google plus. Can you say desperation much? |

(OP) User ID: 20545539 United States 11/06/2013 10:10 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sure, 99% of the comments on YouTube were pure crap, but this really does suck. It seems as though I can reply to comments but I can't comment without replying. Any other popular video hosting sites where you can easily comment? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 15335001 I don't know much about alternatives beyond Vimeo and such. But as somebody said in a comment in an article about all this, it has nothing to do with stopping the crap comments. It's all about forcing everybody to use G+.
