It might even still be there. It was my own fault for watching it though as I knew beforehand what it was just didnt expect it to be so graphic. I dont remember if that had a disclaimer.
I think overly vicious animal vids should have a disclaimer. But its a bit hard to figure when to draw the line. For example a vid of a snake eating a mouse, I dont think thats bad, but other people will. But yes, the wildebeast one posted in here yesterday was bad and should have had one (again my own fault, looked at it after I knew what it was AND it had been deleted  )
I do think youtube could add censors though, from what I remember you have to wait about an hour or so for your video to become public after you upload it? I thought they were checking that the content was suitable during that time? |
Oh God I saw that video too, I remember hearing about it and the curiosity got the better off me, made me a lot more cautious of those sort of videos since

Yeah I suppose they could do that, I think users can choose to set their videos so that you have to sign in and confirm you're over 18 to see them but then you just have to trust they'll do it, I bet a lot don't because they think they'll miss out on views and stuff
And also like Vicky said it's hard to know really where to draw the line, I guess it can be pretty subjective about how much is too much
