How does one find ban/review rates for YouTube? Wouldn't this be internal data? Can you provide a link to a public datasource that shows shows outcomes of YouTube's banning/takedown and review processes?




Nice, though aggregate data doesn't allow for third party analysis, only the analysis presented by YouTube, which if you suspect YouTube's analysis/handling, isn't that useful.

That said there would be some privacy concerns if that data was just floating around out there.


Comb through public support forums, do public asks for reports of inappropriate moderation outcomes, find someone with significant enough financial losses to justify a lawsuit and use the legal discovery process to get internal stats or ask Google's representative on the stand, ask your state or national representative to support legislation requiring publishing of such statistics... there are a few ideas. All of them would require action to try to get data, I wouldn't know of any existing data because I haven't looked.


Ok, so the answer is: no. This information isn't publicly available or easily accessible.


I have no idea, like I said. I haven't looked and wouldn't otherwise know.
