All great businesses remain great by holding on to a good reputation. YouTube is a reputable company in the video and streaming business. It seeks to remain so. The video content on it platform could make or Mar it as a company. Lately, the platform which is owned by google has come under criticism from users and even video content makers alike.Some Weeks ago a popular video Blogger on YouTube, was on the spot light for negative reason. The Video blogger Logan Paul posted a video from the Japanese Suicide forest.

The video was viewed millions of times before its removal. He later apologized and admitted it had been “misguided”.The group appeared to be shocked at their find, but also made jokes. The clip was labelled “disrespectful” and “disgusting” by users online, who accused the YouTube star of trivializing mental illness.

The controversial video was posted on 31 December, and showed Paul and his friends during a trip to Japan discovering the body of a man in the Aokigahara forest at the base of Mount Fuji, known to be a frequent site of suicides.

In response, Paul’s channels were removed from YouTube’s Google Preferred programme, where brands sell ads on the platform’s top 5% of content creators. He has since turned a new leave, coming out opening to apologize, talking with suicide survivors and promising to donate 1million Dollars to suicide related research and aid of victim’s families.

That episode, though ended, has left a mark, it has made YouTube to take an inward look at their policy. Something, I think is wise from a company looking to stand the taste of time.
