This week’s high-profile Jacksfilms and SSsniperwolf drama has reached an epilogue, though its one no one appears to have wished.
On Oct. 20, YouTube announced on Twitter it could be taking motion in opposition to SSsniperwolf within the type of a short lived monetization suspension. The tweet garnered lots of consideration, most of it detrimental, on account of its criticism of each creators. The criticism is especially oblique and refers solely to “either side,” however it was sufficient to spark outrage amongst creators and followers.
“Confirming SSSniperWolf has obtained a short lived monetization suspension per Creator Duty insurance policies. Off platform actions that put others’ private security in danger hurt our neighborhood & the conduct on either side isn’t what we would like on YT. Hoping everybody helps transfer this convo to a greater place,” the Twitter put up learn.
The highest-placing reply comes from none aside from JackSepticEye, a well known Irish YouTuber and content material creator who’s been on the platform for over a decade. He defended jacksfilms’ place, saying YouTube can’t evaluate the 2 creator’s roles within the controversy.
He wasn’t the one standard creator to chime in on the scenario both. Content material creator Dolan Darkish, who’s famously recognized for his meme compilations and parodies, held a nearly identical position to JackSepticEye: “‘Habits on either side’? I don’t recall Jack displaying up at SSSniperWolf’s home and posting it on-line.”
Aside from creators, the neighborhood’s been in an uproar within the replies and quote tweets too. YouTube has been largely criticized beforehand for a number of oblique statements associated to this controversy.
Yesterday, YouTube was under pressure from the community for its “tone deaf” tweets, in addition to hypocritical statements on doxxing and its standing on the platform.
The drama between Jacksfilms and SSSniperwolf started after the previous revealed a collection of movies criticizing SSSniperwolf’s reaction-style content material on YouTube. It’s slowly picked up tempo over the previous couple of weeks, culminating with SSSniperwolf allegedly doxxing Jacksfilms’ household dwelling. With YouTube’s strategy, it seems the drama will linger on.
