[QUOTE="Northwood Mediaworks, post: 105768, member: 6411"] Good point. I dont put any family stuff up, I have my own website, so if that were something I needed to do I would put it there. I am almost thinking I might scrap my YT channel and use some other conveyance, or my website, just posting the latest flight. As for other content creators there are many areas in which this will be crazy ambiguous, its a real shame. It remains to be seen how they pursue this in terms of enforcement. It is not clear to me if you get a warning if you are seen to be out of compliance or do they just whack you with a fine right away? I'm not against the protection of the kids, but if its that easy to get a huge fine, I will stand further off the road, so to speak. I see many other videos today from content creators saying similar things. Between this and the other post I made today about DJI's new app coming in 2020 which gives anyone the ability to track you and your drone, I am feeling like it might be pointless continuing in this hobby. Thats a real bummer. All I want to do is share my nature videos FFS. As an aside, I cant find anything which says the FTC or Youtube can legally fine someone outside of the USA. So might be okay.. but it sucks for my 'Merican cousins. [/QUOTE]
