well porn gets deleted quickly because youtube has a strong userbase and although i dont use youtube, im sure theres a "flag" button that you can press to alert moderators.

So go ahead and write the "couple thousands" dollar software so Microsoft can put it in it's browser and make porn haters STFU and make a cool mil!!!

But, you won't write it, because you can't.

First of all, implementing it in a browser with thumbnail would require way too much CPU for the normal user... it would slow down surfing and stuff. Adult filters out there do a pretty good job.

Your idea is just stupid.

You've got no idea of what our team is capable of... My partner (programmer) was making more money working at the governement as a consultant in a year then you'll probably make in the next 5 years, he could probably do something like that in less then a month and it would be very effective.

We have probably the most advanced backend on the net for a free dating portal out there.

P.S. You have no idea what an algorythm is. We're talking about a whole program there and you're talking about a secret algo. Read the definition. I'm sure you can read it on wikipedia... oh and is wikipedia computer genrated too ?

Youtube is hosted in Arizona. Kind of ironic considering there's so much porn in the state.

Correct me if I'm wrong...I've never seen one.

No way youtube screens each video per day by human eyes!!!
And that's the secret.

Youtube must have invented an algorithm to identify porn video.
And it's the algorithm that google was after.

He who controls the algorithm is in the strongest position to via for ultimate control of the internet since they can guarantee parents, schools and right-wingers of censorship of porn.

Conspiracy theory...maybe; but just think about it.

Interesting bu there is no secret, it was keep yahoo in a downward spiral. Yahoo was trying to buy so Google went over to keep it out of there hands.

And "possiblity" was all I was really saying.

its actually already reality , i read a great tech article the other day on it.. tried to find it to show people but couldnt..

The flesh tones part is what they are working on now. but the crux of the idea is simple speech to text to identify flagged words like "fuck me " etc and text on screen(watermarks)

But im not sure thats the reason they bought youtube, i think google was prob researching this before youtube was around ( but i could be wrong )

when you outsource to india to screen the videos, it shouldnt cost much to hire a building full to screen those 60-70k videos uploaded

alexg 03-28-2007 04:50 PM

funny theory...

HeadPimp 03-28-2007 06:02 PM

Most likely they bought it for ad revenue and to try and keep ahead of Bill Gate's company eating machine. Sort of a grow or die mentality. Problem is that most analysts think that it was a bad buy, which is why their stock has suffered lately.

That would still be proprietary software worth big bucks that involved algorithms, so you are only proving my point here.


think again

Fresh 03-28-2007 06:20 PM

btw, when u say "big bucks" how much fucking bigger is the god damn google buck gonna get from a porn detection script? honestly.

Luc 03-28-2007 07:47 PM

sortie, not to insult your intelligence, but you don't know what you're talking about.

first off, youtube content IS screened by people, some employees, but MOST by other users who can FLAG content as inappropriate. that's why every video has that button next to it and lets anyone flag it. That’s why when you click on a porn video it says “this video has been marked as inapproprirate by youtube users and is no longer available…”. youtbue was built from the ground up to be a user controlled community, from the keywords, to descriptions to tags to content.

Youtube technology is weak. Their automation is extremely weak. They burned through $25 MILLION in investor dough before they sold to google. They are burning through $2 million per month in bandwidth.

As to why google bought youtube, the story behind that is some sleazy investor shit, and has nothing to do with “unique technologies.” Youtube still doesn’t come anywhere close to breaking even.

Do some research, the info is out there. Unfortunately, your theory is wrong.

Join date means nothing.

I applaud Smokey, the stocks shares theory guy, and others that recognize Youtube has nothing to do with videos, but rather resource conglomeration, and media consolidation- it's an entirely different model.. that i suspect will begin to reveal itself shortly, and long into the future.

I don't think you quite nailed this one on the head, Sortie, but i think you're asking the right questions. :thumbsup

Actually I think it has more to do with the 'big guys' battling out the video/cable/tv show/advertising model.

If you follow what's been going on lately, and Yahoo launching their '9' network. It's a matter of time before either Yahoo, or Google, perfects the way to do video and build in a profitable way to deliver advertising via video, and 5/10/15 second adverts.

This started years ago when Yahoo bought LaunchCast.

This doesn't even get into the Fox/ABC partner announcement the other day having to do with the web, and getting their programs available for d/l via internet.

Right now the race is on for monitizing the advertising on video.

Google plans to take over the world but there is no way that YouTube has a script that recognizes porn. Surely not?

Does it also have a script makes all of the 18yr+ clips members only?
