First, I agree with youtube that hatefull, hurtful, bad language, and bad content should be labeled RESTRICTED on youtube. That means when you have the restricted button on in your settings or if your work has RESTRICTED on the internet filter, you can't see those bad videos. I am a teacher and dad and understand, and I want this.

But, I make family oriented videos. And a lot of my videos are now restricted on youtube.
For example, I made a gopro video of wasps attacking my camera, or I filmed a nature show of capturing toads in Colombia, and even a hunting video. One of my hunting videos does not even have a kill in it. None of my videos have bad words, or made or done in a harmful way. But someone at youtube is labeling them Restricted, so that means I am not able to reach a larger audience if I want to make money on them.
Anyone else with this problem?
If you have youtube, go to the bottom of the screen and click on RESTRICTED mode to turn it on, then see what videos you can play. Try then searching for your videos and playing them. You might be surprised to see some don't show up.
Try searching for hunting videos with restricted mode on.

Come on, I let my 2nd grade class watch hunting videos once in a while. they enjoy it.

How can we change or petition to see if we can changed our videos if we truly believe they are family and kid oriented.
I mean really, I have a video of a parade and my daughter on a horse....RESTRICTED

Has something changed in the settings?

Either you have to be prepared to fight this kid of nonsense or live with it. This is the world liberals are giving us.

It's very sad that they have made hunting videos in restricted mode.
In my class I talk to them about hunting and fishing, and I always devote a science lesson to the whitetail deer. We will go out and make plaster copies of prints we find on the ground at a nearby park, look for rubs, and talk about habitat and what hunting is all about.
And we start the day with the Pledge of Allegiance.
