    I don't like youtube, you search for something like lion and you find out idiots who believe they are lions ...
    it's only full of jokes that I don't find to even be in the same zip code as funny

    In a way I think this should happen since different countries have different laws etc. (I don't know if I got what you meant, but I think I did).

    I also agree. But I do believe places such as MySpace and Youtube is one reason the economy is the way it is ( in USA ). The people who grew up in the 1950´s lived life like it should have been, did things that actually meant something. Now all kids care about is MySpace, YouTube, their cell phones and so on... When will this so called time machine be made?

    There should not be any fetters for internet. It is a free medium. If you like youtube, watch it. Otherwise leave it. States should not attempt to ban a particular medium if it is with in the rules.

    I think it's ridiculous that countries block websites. What ever happened to freedom of speech? If I want to watch something, I will.

    Now I just use a programme called Treewalk, because here in Turkey they block youtube every month it seems.

    I rarely use YouTube, but have before to try and learn the guitar. I found a few videos useful. I think you just have to dig to find it. I don't see any reason to block it though.

    Unlucky. I am just glad I live in a country that doesn't stress over stuff like that. I feel like we have more freedom here.

    I think they should let people view what LEGAL material they like on the internet. If users get offended by youtube, it should be up to them to stay away from it.
