Pombo Live.<br> <br> <br> <br> Today coming to you live from Tracy, California. That’s right, we’re driving.<br> <br> <br> <br> We’ve driven all the way down South to Tracy, California to visit my family for the Thanksgiving holiday.<br> <br> <br> <br> Had to come down a little bit earlier than usual. I was talking about last night and what we ended up doing is we’re camped out with my family right now, but I wanted to come to you and talk to you a little bit about YouTube and I’ll bounce something that’s happening over there and how it relates back to your business, whether you’re on YouTube or not.<br> <br> <br> <br> Let me just lay down the scenario if you aren’t aware, there’s this thing called COPPA, which is the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act.<br> <br> <br> <br> I believe that’s what it is. This is an older act. It’s been around for awhile, but the FTC, I believe are the ones that are changing how they enforce a lot of these things and they’re enforcing with a lot of new fines and so forth.<br> <br> <br> <br> YouTube is trying to get ahead of the game and kind of take control of this before they get to the point to where they’re being fined heavily or held responsible for the content on their platform.<br> <br> <br> <br> So what they’re doing is they’re asking every video creator out there, anybody that’s putting out any forms of videos on YouTube to be able to label their stuff of whether it is made for children or not for children.<br> <br> <br> <br> The stuff that is made for children is going to need to make sure it covers everything that is a available on COPPA.<br> <br> <br> <br> This is of course within the United States.<br> <br> <br> <br> So if you’re outside of the United States, I’m not sure how YouTube is treating you, but within the United States, this is for sure something that they are paying attention to and they are holding everybody responsible.<br> <br> <br> <br> Now, if you get a chance, if you’re interested in this type of thing, go ahead and watch the video that I’ve linked here, the YouTube length that’s in the description, and it’ll give you a concept of what some of the chaos that is compounding out there.<br> <br> <br> <br> People are very worried because what happens when you have content that isn’t specifically made for children, but at the same time, children can watch it. That’s to say, there’s nothing wrong with children watching it.<br> <br> <br> <br> Are you still under the same rules?<br> <br> <br> <br> It’s very vague thing and everything.<br> <br> <br> <br> So it’s caused all this chaos and people worried about losing their YouTube channels forever or losing the income because a lot of this stuff is tied to income and how much money that you can make and what the ads are that come forth in front of children.<br> <br> <br> <br> It’s this big tangled mess. I don’t know all the details. I’ve heard enough to know that it’s a huge mess.<br> <br> <br> <br> Who are the people that are most hurt?<br> <br> <br> <br> And the video that is linked below is to a YouTube channel called Fresh Baked. They were originally called Fresh Baked Disney.<br> <br> <br> <br> The whole concept, this guy started by just taking a camera around Disneyland and fil...
