YouTube logoGrowing too fast is a growing pain—ask YouTube! The online social video sharing site which lets users share their videos is being scorned upon by avid YouTube users as the popular site deletes videos that may be objectionable on the grounds of profanity just by single comment claimed by a user.

A blogger YouTuber Miel Vanopstal, an avid YouTuber furious to see his video deleted, blogged about it in a post titled "Screw YouTube". He complains that YouTube’s latest efforts to enforce copyright and ban/delete otherwise “objectionable” material is arbitrary.

He’s not alone, as another blogger Nathan Weinberg voices himself on InsideGoogle says that his account got deleted for “supposedly infringing copyright laws” without legal notice from the actual copyright holder. He claims YouTube makes decisions on their own account and aren’t really interested in archiving video but controlling them for their own means and ends. Nathan also writes that he has now “Ultimately decided to ruin YouTube” by “going to start with the most popular uploaders, and report every possibly copyright infringing video in their account.”

Yes, user managed services are always difficult to manage and control; it becomes more like a catch 22 situation. We know for one thing that no matter what we do, we’d be careful not to be on Nathan’s bad side :P
