YouTube's latest move is hitting creators hard – the platform is now mass-banning channels and rejecting appeals at lightning speed, sometimes within minutes. This raises serious questions about automated enforcement and due process. When AI-driven moderation systems make split-second decisions without meaningful human review, creators lose their livelihoods before they even get a fair hearing. The speed of rejections suggests appeals aren't getting proper consideration. This mirrors growing concerns across the tech industry about how algorithms handle content governance – a lesson Web3 communities should pay attention to as we build decentralized alternatives. The current approach? Swift, automated, and increasingly unaccountable.

That's why we need Web3.

Someone should have spoken out about YouTube's algorithm dictatorship long ago. Web3 indeed needs to seriously reflect on this lesson.

This is exactly the endgame of centralized platforms; algorithmic dictatorship has no appeal space.

This is the common problem with centralized platforms. YouTube's recent move was too ruthless. The algorithm deletes content on command, and no one has a chance to respond. Web3 should have taken over this part long ago; decentralized governance, even if imperfect, is still better than a black box.
