> these regulatory restrictions which supposedly force this kind of behavior from Google

The above was your first post...

> I asked for a very specific thing, not 'regulations that impact youtube'.

My apologies then for misunderstanding, that's how I interpreted your initial request. Can you explain the difference then?

I suggested a path for you to educate yourself, again pointing out that resources are available to you so you can learn things for yourself without demanding them from others.

Anyways, based on this latest comment and your other comments in this thread, you really come across as looking to pick a fight.. You're very confrontational.

Perhaps something to reflect on..

Do you really need me to explain the difference between'specific regulations that force YouTube to take this specific action' vs 'regulations that may affect youtube'?

Wow thank you for the amazing suggestions and letting me know that search engines exist! Apparently it wasn't enough for you to be able to answer the question asked though, and the only thing you were able to contribute was this passive aggressive tale about how you tried to Google something.

By the way - when someone claims that there are certain regulations behind decisions/actions it's totally okay to ask what those specific regulations are. Your little tantrum adds absolutely nothing to the conversation, and this hilarious comment of yours trying to explain away this tantrum only serves to underline the fact that you're not even trying to have an honest/sincere conversation.

I'm not sure you know what the word "tantrum" means, but that's fine.

I'll reiterate that your immature and snarky tone does you no favours in terms of having a discourse, and again I encourage you to reconsider how you engage with others here.

Do you talk like this to people in the real world?

Maybe consider the fact that multiple people called you out for being rude and contributing nothing to the conversation, and the fact that your silly tantrum was flagged and removed, before you go around critiqueing other people's 'tone'.

Learn to have an honest conversation, without being rude, before you give others advice.

You're insecure and you're projecting, and it's obvious.
