Option to block all verified Youtube accounts?

Open TomArrow opened this issue 5 years ago • 4 comments

A bit of an odd request I guess, but can you add an option to filter all Youtube videos from an account that is verified? They all have that little "checkmark" next to the channel name. This could be useful in case of major news events, like hurricanes and such, to find original source videos from normal people instead of the hundreds of reuploads by greedy big channels. Obviously this would also catch a few "good" big channels, but it could be deactivated by default and only activated for special cases like that.

This sounded useful but then we would need a whitelist

Not necessarily, it could be off by default and only activate for specific situations, like when you are searching for small channels.

Natural vs Astroturf?

Yeah I guess you could say it like that.
