Dealing With YouTube’s Content ID Alerts And Penalties

March 24, 2014 By Jeff Turner 8 Comments

This weekend I uploaded my 1000th video to the “Jeff Turner” YouTube channel. Only a few hundred are public. The rest are private or unlisted.

Cry Of The Technophiles – Don’t Worry About Terms Of Service

December 19, 2012 By Jeff Turner 5 Comments

I’m a little crazy. I’ll admit that. But I’m not insane. So I was amused by MG Siegler’s assertion that “sane people don’t quit services when they make terms of service changes. They quit them when they start to suck. Focus your energy on calling out the suckage.” Unless, oh, just for the sake of […]
