I'm sorry if this is in the wrong forum and if this is stupid to tell the farms but a lot of lolcow videos may disappear from YouTube. A thing called Coppa just got put in action and supposedly this will cause YouTube to start deleting any and all videos if they can not make money starting December 10. It is possible this is just another scare that will lead to nothing or a complete misunderstanding but just in case I'm saving any essentials / potential stuff I can. Again, may be dumb to tell you lot and it may not happen but I just wanted to let you know.
This sort of mirrors the general advice for people to ensure to archive their favourite pets, as cows are insane and delete things with no warning or do something retarded and get their accounts deleted. If it would be horrible to lose, take proactive measures.

Tbh at this point, observing YT burning down the the ground would be the most entertaining outcome. If only because of the panic all those full time e-celeb gravy train riders would provide.

This is solid advice. I've also heard of this new phenomenon occuring in certain lolcows that's been labelled "chimping out" where they themselves will delete their content (can you believe that?) and that also needs to be archived.
It takes a lot of work so I hope the other kiwis that know their place will start the process.
OP is a fag but the scare he's referring to might be real.
Basically the gist is that youtube updated their T&C to say that they'll delete any content they deem "not commercially viable". Make of this what you will...
I'm sorry I'm a faggot I'm new to archiving / the way the farms work. I just found out about this today and I got scared my cows would lose their pasture. I'll go lurk some more.
