[00:09 - 00:18]Super Mega Cast is back for the 16th episode on September 1st

[01:14 - 01:24]YouTube has announced demonetization of videos that are not advertiser-friendly

[01:24 - 01:36]This has caused controversy and concern among content creators and viewers

[01:36 - 01:44]The terms of service are vague and open-ended, causing confusion and fear of censorship

[02:49 - 03:10]The list of inappropriate content includes sexual humor, violence, vulgar language, drug promotion, and controversial/sensitive subjects

[07:10 - 07:21]Twitter and YouTube's actions are tampering with freedom of speech and expression

[07:58 - 08:13]The overall concern is that opinions and voices are being silenced by corporate entities

[07:58 - 08:13]YouTube and Twitter should not have the power to take down content based on personal disagreement

[08:14 - 08:35]There is hypocrisy in Google's past protests against SOPA and their current censorship actions

[00:09 - 08:45]The vague and open-ended terms of service need to be clarified and revised to protect freedom of speech and expression on the internet.

[08:45 - 08:54] YouTube and other websites became scared of a general statement that could affect their business.

[14:53 - 15:10]YouTube has changed their terms of service multiple times, causing frustration among users.

[15:20 - 15:31]YouTube and Twitter, both known for advocating social justice, have been accused of silencing opposing opinions.

[16:04 - 16:13]This is troubling because it goes against the idea of "broadcast yourself" and promotes a narrow view of opinions.

[16:44 - 17:01]These websites have enacted bland uses of silencing people, such as demonetizing their videos.

[16:44 - 17:01]This is detrimental to content creators who rely on YouTube as a form of income.

[16:44 - 17:01]They claim to be helping creators understand why their videos are demonetized, but this was not a common problem before.

[16:44 - 17:01]Videos with certain keywords, such as "ISIS" or "SJW," are being demonetized without valid reason.

[16:44 - 17:01]Demonetizing videos is a passive aggressive way to discourage users from creating content on certain topics.

[08:45 - 17:09]In summary, YouTube and other websites are silencing users and promoting a narrow view of opinions, which goes against the idea of "broadcast yourself."

[22:57 - 23:03]SuperMega has had less variety in content recently due to their work managing five channels, but they have plans to create more diverse content in the future

[22:57 - 23:03]Despite their success, SuperMega is always coming up with new ideas and working to improve their channel

[23:53 - 24:05]SuperMega wants to create more than just let's play videos, and their sense of humor translates well to other forms of content

[24:14 - 24:21]The channel is still new, but has already gained a lot of support and subscribers
