Template: I am concerned about the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) in its current form. As of now, COPPA is extremely unclear when it comes to defining what is and is not for children. While the guidelines seem simple at first, they're so broad in scale that they could encompass many YouTube creators work that I care about, who do not make children specific content. Please revise COPPA so that the guidelines are clear about what is and isn't children's content with far less grey area. As of now, many creators are scared because they make animation, anime, video game, and toy content that is meant for adults, or at the very least, a mixed audience, but is certainly not directed towards kids, yet under the current law, they could easily be deemed as "for kids" content, making them liable to a life altering fine per video.
Speaking on behalf of YouTube creators, it makes no sense for them to be fined for YouTube's negligence. Content Creators do not data mine from their videos and never have. YouTube data mines from their videos and uses cookies to gain information on their viewers. This is information Creators never see or use. Why are creators being held responsible for draconian and career ending sized fines that are meant for corporations? Please revise COPPAs wording, and place the responsibility of Children's Protection on those who actually are violating the law, not on the Creators who make their living on the platform.

Oh no, another big YouTube issue. This time we're talking about FTC's crackdown on YouTube with regards to COPPA, the Children's Online Privacy and Protection Act, where YouTube got fined a HUGE $170 million. As a result, FTC's big-wig spokesman has said that he's aiming for YouTubers like "fish in a barrel." There's a lot of uncertainty around FTC's crackdown, especially with YouTube's new rollout of the "Made for Kids" vs "Not Made For Kids" selection on select videos, but the uncertainty comes with content that is not made directly FOR kids, but has packaging that could be appealing for kids. Creators today are scared about the future of their livelihood with COPPA going into 2020. So join your host, Grant, as he dives into what we know about COPPA today and why creators across the platform are freaking out.
