    Negative feedback is a part of content creation; if you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen. Or industry in this case.

    It's alarming how easily the system can be abused to potentially silence even a large Youtube channel. Google needs to come up with new rules!

    We can only hope. In my eyes the whole site has been going downhill since Google stepped in.

    but to be fair, they probably just do it to cover their asses in hopes there's no protest.

    As far as I understand, it's not Google's fault. Large media organisations force them to have systems like this.

    Same reason Netflix and LoveFilm use Silverlight, even though it's complete bollocks.

    I'm sure Google implemented this system due to pressure from media lobbyists. No doubt about it. It doesn't mean that they can't have a system in place to protect their partners from abuse. Reviewers like TB make them good money with their work. I think it's not to much to ask that Google looks after them, too.
