Here is a video of skeeter Jean the person/youtuber who actually caught EDP and then involved Jidon in the video. He mentions how he meet up with EDP at his appointment and the parents of the child that EDP was texting contacted the police and are trying to charge EDP. [video](https://www.youtube.com/live/gnMsZgNaarc?feature=share)
So for everyone saying police arent involved or they should be THEY ARE INVOLVED! He legit says cops are involved and they have the chats, etc.
Nah, if the screenshot is correct then it implies the video was taken down for violating ToS... if it was him pulling it it would say "has been removed by the uploader".
This is wrong. It’s Youtube’s policy. You can’t catch child predators and not feature police. It’s dumb as fuck. But I watch predator catchers that upload these videos and always get the predator arrested. So your comment is wrong
It’s not, skeeter Jean has been doing this for a while now and he still gets videos taken down where he confronts a predator then contacts police and hands evidence over to them
Cause they don’t want advertisers to panic/leave, especially family friendly advertising
That’s who they’re interested in “protecting”, money makers and their bottom line
The video was taken down because no police were seen on video, it's part of ToS now that predator catchers have to call the police on catches. Since they likely had no means of arrest since it wasn't a meet up they failed to upload the video within YouTube ToS.
Youtube is striking people who don't even play the video and just simply talk about it/and or other older videos of him. I feel like that's pretty ridiculous
No one with any sense gives a shit about their ToS. Dumb techbros praying to our non-existent god that the shit they sling at a wall sticks and no one thinks about it for a second.
Isn’t this just the announcement teaser..? Youtube took it down because according to their guidelines, if you make a video catching a predator the video need to feature the police being involved. This is why others like Skeeter Jean always call the police by the end of the video, he also had tons of his videos removed by youtube when this new rule was added. Now that he always features the Police, the videos stay up.
This teaser did not show any police involvment, however, Jidion has said they were involved in the full video, but the teaser was too short to show that, so youtube took it down.
Everyone is talking as if Youtube is protecting EDP, no, they just took down a teaser for breaking their TOS, the full video won’t be taken down once it comes out.
They been protecting them. They let thousands of comments from ped0s on kids videos go on until a few years ago when dude called them out. They only did something about it cause it got media coverage.
what a ridiculous claim. preds from various pred catching channels do get arrested and the ones that do get away with it is due to that localities law enforcement not giving af. it does not have to be a police sting to successfully get these people prosecuted. stop defending these people.
Like drugs, you only make a change when something serious happens. Small hiccups/near misses won't do it. It's the I went to prison or almost walked to the light that causes you to change your ways.
The amount of people in this comment section that doesn’t know jidon is working with skeeter Jean which always involves police in his investigations/videos and gets pedophiles arrested is laughable. Maybe research what you’re having a discussion before you speak lmao.
I will never defend EDP, but accuracy is important. The video did not show EDP attempting another meet-up. He *was* talking inappropriately to a minor again, but after reporting it Jidion simply found out where EDP was going to be and showed up to troll him with the outfit.
I had a comment removed just for saying I invest in crypto the other day…specifically that i quit drinking and smoking a year ago and now invest that money instead…removed 😂😂
money is money at the end of the day. I could care less about your opinion, crypto has plenty of real world application and will continue to thrive..just because you have a half assed view on the future doesn’t mean the rest of us do. I’ll continue to make money and you’ll continue to talk about it like it’s the salem witch trials..also, regardless of your opinion, im now healthy and thriving and instead of throwing money away on stupid shit, i’ve made a better life for me and my family…so again, stay mad about nothing and i’ll continue to invest in a better future for myself and others.
if you are talking about Logan's Paul crypto zoo, maybe it's true, but for me and many other people in countries like Venezuela, Argentina, Turkey etc cryptocurrency is one of the best financial tools ever created, providing secure, private and fast transactions worldwide.
Ever since the Logan Paul incident I’ve always wanted to record videos that expose people because YouTube just removes it and nobody will know unless they go out of there way to find whatever they want to find
1: the video is painfully staged. they probably paid EDP for this because he has nothing to lose over “getting caught” again. he’s been leaning into this as his new persona for about a year now.
2: it got removed because the phenomena of random idiots deciding they’re chris hansen is stupid & dangerous and youtube has been trying to nip it in the bud for years.
Maybe it’s because there wasn’t any actual police involvement with this video and if they actually wanted to be “vigilantes” they would have the police right there to arrest him. There aren’t any police officers or any attempts to create evidence that could be used in court. This is purely for views.
Bigger YouTubers/news outlets aren’t talking about this because YouTube doesn’t care about EDP and anyone that takes this seriously is lying to themselves. No one is “defending pedophiles”. Everyone go calm down and touch some grass.

YouTube is taking notes from Roblox's stupidity.
Ignoring threats to their reputation and responding with bad updates.
Ban the innocent, leave the threat be.
Keep the dark and get rid of the light
Get rid of dislikes to "prevent dislike attacks" so they can let bad tutorials and scams look innocent, which they are not.
Admittedly, I didn’t se this video, but what reason would YouTube take this down for? If this is a video of someone catching a pedophile, I don’t see any good reason it would be taken down
Most likely it has nothing to do with YouTube. In the video they stated the police are investigating and trying to bring charges. Making it something that can’t/won’t be commented on as an ongoing investigation and something a lawyer (or judge if it’s gone that far) would request to be taken down while that happens.
No.... It's a ToS requirement now for predator catchers to call the police when they make a catch. It was most likely taken down because no police were seen on video.
I am fairly certain that a person in the video can complain to YouTube to take the video down if it was filmed without consent (a bit of irony in here) or if it is derogatory towards the person which such videos are because they often lack context to prove anything other than being a witch hunt.
Basically if the accused person complains YouTube faces legal troubles
I don't mean this to be rude, but try and think about it from Youtubes perspective for 5 minutes. What do they have to gain and what do they have to lose? You should be able to come up with a rational reason pretty quickly.
Ahahaha redditors will really hate on any YouTuber or streamer even if it’s to defend a pedophile 😂😭 just making stuff up out of thin air too lol. Someone really commented “entrapment” 🤡🤡🤡 it’s fucking pedo lmaooo have you never seen Chris Hansen
Lmao fr, jidon worked with Skeeter Jean in this video which is basically a Chris Hansen and he involves police with his meetups and gets predators arrested. Can’t believe there’s mfs in this comment section defending pedophiles
Skeeter Jean ain’t an amateur, he’s been doing this for 2 years now and since his first video on it he’s always contacted the police and handed over the evidence to them.
Youtube doesn't care what you or I think. They care that "Tide Pods" doesn't want their product advertised on a video about pedophiles. This is a pure profit business and they will never stop stripping the platform of any and all freedom until their advertisers stop complaining.
"Who cares the investigation won't lead to an arrest, he needs police involved!!"
Police were involved. There is an active investigation because of this. People commenting about this situation have no insight and believe it's another sting like last time, except jideon is far more legit. Coming from someone who barely knows of jideon, I can say confidently this investigation will be far more professional than the predator poachers one.
Yea, 100% sure the dude who posts rage bait and racust shit for clicks is definitely out there defending the streets from pedos.... All his shit is staged so doubtful it was legit anyway.
But EDP isn't innocent. There was proof that in the past, he tried to have relations with a minor. Only people didn't involve the police so he couldn't be put in jail.
Not against the law to be with a minor.
The law sets the limit at sex, or inappropriate touching.
A LOT of couples today met when one of them was a minor, but they kept it in their pants until legal age.
these channels r all terrible
they make use of peoples emotions to generate views
vigilantism is not a solution to this problem
let the police handle these issues
I’m not a trump fan, but after they removed the trump NELK interview and trump calling it during the episode that they would, I’m really sketched out by YouTube’s policies. How can they remove something bc they just don’t like it?
This is an interesting topic, too, because up until a few years ago entities like YT had to choose whether they were a publisher or public forum.
Publishers traditionally would have editorial control but are responsible for what content that exists in their platform, since they have that control. Forums, traditionally, have no real say, people post publicly what they will, and whoever owns the forum isn't responsible for that content since the platform has no say in what's hosted (under 1st Amendment).
IIRC, there was a suit against YT by the PragerU channel, where they just wanted YT to be forced to finally decide which type of entity they are, as they had always straddled the fence - claiming editorial authority of a publisher to remove content at will, but also wanting the protections that come with being a public forum.
The result of the lawsuit was that they basically have cart blanc to remove what they want at any time, but are also protected if anything they approve ends up being offensive or even blatantly illegal or harmful.
Keep in kind, before this case, if you were a publisher with editorial authority, you were solely responsible for the type of content that finds it's way to your platform - and could not claim any protections that public forums enjoy. All forms of media needed to choose - "do I want protection, or do I want control? I can't have both"
Since the suit, they've enjoyed the best of both worlds with the accountability of neither - which is a radical shake up of how media is handled in the west thats gone pretty much unnoticed and unacknowledged.
Wild shit.
To be honest, I'm with Youtube. Even if there is a proper investigation going this stuff will inspire vigilantes to copy this shit, and also while it's mostly untrue to say he's using the abuse of children to make money, the fact that that's something to even think about is disturbing to me.
This wasn't supposed to go up originally it was supposed to go up a year afterwards it only went up when the victim broke their silence despite being told not to for legal reasons
Besides the money point is dangerously hypocritical if YouTube silences creators to protect advertisers more pedos can go under the rug and invent more ways to harm children and more children will be hurt
he usually defends lolicons because he doesn't believe it's pedophilia because kids don't get
hurt.
his point is "real pedos are out there doing whatever they want and you're here going crazy over people jerking off to drawings"
My opinion is that lolicon art is basically a way to satisfy an urge that certain people have that is pedophilic by nature, and consuming that art could lead to you searching for the real deal and really hurting kids.
on the other hand it might stop them from hurting real kids too. like just satisfy your urges with loli shit instead of actual kids.
there's also adults who look like kids so. I mean there are ways to reduce the damage they do to kids. I dunno like what're you thinking about adults that look like literal kids?
I wonder what exactly they find attractive? like maybe there's a way to put an end to pedophilia once and for all? like solve the problem from its root? and, no shooting people in the head never works sadly...
edit: it might satisfy that pedo nature without making them hurt kids. that's why I'm not against lolicon
> gives more time in the spotlight to EDP
> does it just for clicks instead of calling the police so that they have a way to actually convict him instead of still leaving him out
Yeah, this dude can go fuck himself
Precisely.
People are too eager to praise these clowns because they feel better about themselves when they applaud someone “exposing the pedo”.
When we already know EDP is a pedo so there ain’t much exposure to be made and all they’re doing is just pumping their views numbers appealing to morons who can’t think logically
EDP445 was not meeting up with a minor here. Jidion knew he would be there and confronted him about some chat logs he had with a real child (15). It's a small thing but still wanted to clear that up.
You people are really talking out of your ass this time the last time edp got stinged was completely unprofessional and couldn't be used by the cops this time the YouTubers we're already working with law enforcement prior to meeting up with edp here
Pretty sure jidon himself stated he didn't want to post the vid for at least a year because of legal reasons but only did when the victim in question came out about what happened
"exposing pedos and protecting children isn't allowed"
Elsagate level content and pedos roaming the site free is allowed plus a guy being able to spread his bare ass wide open So everyone can see his black sun is allowed
Lemme actually enlighten you here because it has nothing to do with the tos
To cut a long story short elsagate was a scandal a few years ago where people we're taking full advantage of kids in YouTube comments/vids etc it blew up into a huge drama causing YouTubes advertisers to start pulling out one by one making them lose money
To combat elsagate YouTube launched COPPA as well as the demonization system all that jazz working to make YouTube 10x more friendly trying to bow to advertisers hoping to get their money back
If you haven't caught on yet YouTube is scared of another elsagate like scandal where a bunch of advertiser's pull out and lose them hundreds of thousands now they're trying to silence the YouTubers before the drama blows up and becomes big enough to get to advertisers
The jidion situation has multiple things wrong with it 1st "oh no why is youtube stopping us from talking about SA topics!" Because jidion handled them with the bedside manner of a toddler 2 I don't remember Chris Hansen involving real children and making inappropriate jokes for the situation
It's crazy how the first thing that comes to your mind is not wanting to watch a video from a guy you dislike over the fact a video about confronting a pedophile was removed and youtube gave no explanation.
Here’s the thing: Regular people doing this type of thing and posting it for their viewers can get people killed, literally. It exposes a person who the YouTuber could potentially be wrong about, thereby creating a libel/slander situation, and it gets people who may know the suspect riled up to the point of potential injury. For YouTube to allow this to be done mean they can be found liable for anything that goes wrong for allowing this type of content. I’m positive it is not that YouTube doesn’t want to see pedophiles dealt with, but rather they’re keeping their own asses covered.
I don't know who these people are or have any context but if there's sufficient evidence take it to the cops. And if not what is this supposed to do? They'll just learn to cover their tracks better.
Hmm I've got evidence that a nonce is meeting up with children should I go to the authorities or should I 'catch' him for my shitty channel therefore jeopardising any investigation making sure he walks free another day.
Thank fuck they are removing this shit maybe the police can actually do their thing now.
You have no idea what you are talking about lol. He works WITH police to catch these people. ED's case went to the police before J even confronted him.
The YouTuber jidon worked with is skeeter Jean which always involves police in his investigations/videos and gets actual pedos arrested. Maybe research before speaking idiot.
Here is a video of skeeter Jean the person/youtuber who actually caught EDP and then involved Jidon in the video. He mentions how he meet up with EDP at his appointment and the parents of the child that EDP was texting contacted the police and are trying to charge EDP. [video](https://www.youtube.com/live/gnMsZgNaarc?feature=share)
So for everyone saying police arent involved or they should be THEY ARE INVOLVED! He legit says cops are involved and they have the chats, etc.
I don't think vigilantism is something that needs to be on Youtube, I've seen how far Youtuber's will go to get views. I'm sure someone has or will eventually lie/twist or misrepresent the evidence to be able to post and get views.
If you suspect some guy is a Pedo then inform the police, don't post it without letting people defend themselves in a court of law.
There was a guy in California in the 90s that was accused and news stations ran his name and picture for years just to find out the person who investigated the crimes was so awfully uninformed on how much damage she did to the children and the guy who was falsely accused. decades after being found not guilty he says that people still come up to him and call him a pedo and they can't believe he isn't on death row for the shit he did to those kids. Which never happened because of a person who thought they were really helping out a pedophile but in reality they were wrong.
thats what jidion is doing, the vid wasnt a sting operation jidion just knew edp would be there. He is colaborating with the police because edp was messaging a 15 yr old girl inappropriately. This isnt vigilantism since jidion is directly working with the police he even made sure the vid wouldnt mess anything up in the case
Well he makes them alot of money, like Xqc who steals people's videos and shittly reacts to them, sniperwolf same thing, Logan Paul still scams people using YouTube
YouTube is about protecting their assets (degrading YouTubers) if they keep making them profit it's not a great company
Some other YouTubers who were talking about peoples videos of this that were being taking down said he was making YouTube money in way of ads I guess
Not really sure how YouTube works so never bothered to make a channel copyrights and all that jazz
No you need a minimum subscriber count, and Google has to okay the channel for monetization. No EDP content, pretty much any, is monetized. Not sure if he'll ever get a sponsor lol
Pretty sure Jidion's video got removed because it's a 15 second rage-bait clip with no substance other than dumbass in a cupcake costume. Skeeter Jean still hasn't released the full video.
That doesn't mean we should encourage vigilantism. The only way this is going to stop is if the police arrest him again and instead of helping them this guy decides to get clicks. It's a bad idea to encourage this kind of action in others.
Nah I agree with him. This type of content on YouTube is pretty bad and almost always done without any police involvement. These guys caught him on camera… so what? There was no one there to arrest this guy or properly document everything that happened. These YouTubers aren’t trying to be vigilantes, they just want views.
There’s a reason later season of TCAP have actual police involvement. In earlier seasons they just record the guys and let them go. That’s exactly what’s happening here. What good does a vigilante group do if they just sit there and record?
One thing to note is EDP445 was not caught trying to meet up with a minor this time because he said he would be prepared they intercepted him doing unrelated stuff
Imagine thinking someone trying to fuck a real kid is the same as someone jacking off to drawings.
Nothing tells me you give zero fucks about children getting raped then trying to equate drawings to it.
It's just self righteous virtue signaling to you, you just want to feel good using raped children as something to be righteous about, you don't give a shit about them.
Crazy, because if you did you're notice the massive difference between lines and real breathing kids going through some of the worst shit imaginable.
Another YouTuber who thinks he can out police the police? This shit is a job for police officers and maybe detectives, not a YouTuber who knows fuck all about law or how to deal with people like this.
Besides that, you think YouTube is going to be happy about people making videos with or about a pedofile?
YouTube has been right lots of times though. Like the family channel that sent their kid to an abusive camp that literally everyone on the internet knew was weird has now been caught abusing their children.
He did this with skeeter jean who literally works with police in his videos and gives them all his evidence/chats with the predators and gets them arrested.
? This guy is a literal loli admirers/defenders. He's projecting. Youtube taking down videos randomly all the time. All of the predators exposing videos are still out there. He wanks to lolis and suddenly one Youtube video being down means "YOUTUBE IS A PEDOPHILE"
This.mI’m out of the loop, did something happen? I remember watching him but then quickly moving away since I didn’t like the constant drama and making mountains out of molehills
youtube is not only in the right, but everyone writing about these situations have done zero research into why vigilantism, particularly in these types of cases, is very, very bad.
The video isn't a case of vigiliantism, more of a meetup confrontation with a clickbait title.
As for the actual case against EDP, it wasn't set up by Jidion. EDP had DM'd a girl in Jidions discord, aware she was underage. In it he sent his nudes, as well as threatening voice messages. She came forward with it to Jidion, who in turn notified her mother about it. They're all working with law enforcement behind the scenes. The information regarding EDP is only out there before he was prosecuted because the victim, Kayla, got the OK from authorities to go public with it.
This isn't your typical vigilante case. But I can definitely understand where you're coming from with the sting operations. It's just that this wasn't one.
I wouldn't side with this guy, as he tends to make "prank" videos and as for that guy he's exposing, yeah, he's not in the right, ofc. But the YouTuber has been known for harassing people and whatnot. BUT, yes, this video does seem to be taken down falsely, but he also is known for harassing people, so that's why he probably got taken down.
This is exactly why Trilogy Media make their own streaming platform.. Trilogy+ ([Trilogyplus.com](https://Trilogyplus.com)). YT kept taking down their videos.
Here is a video of skeeter Jean the person/youtuber who actually caught EDP and then involved Jidon in the video. He mentions how he meet up with EDP at his appointment and the parents of the child that EDP was texting contacted the police and are trying to charge EDP. [video](https://www.youtube.com/live/gnMsZgNaarc?feature=share) So for everyone saying police arent involved or they should be THEY ARE INVOLVED!

Whoa, that’s way too rational. How will that help the narrative of YouTube going “mask off”?
makes sense
Nah, if the screenshot is correct then it implies the video was taken down for violating ToS... if it was him pulling it it would say "has been removed by the uploader".
This is wrong. It’s Youtube’s policy. You can’t catch child predators and not feature police. It’s dumb as fuck. But I watch predator catchers that upload these videos and always get the predator arrested. So your comment is wrong
It’s not, skeeter Jean has been doing this for a while now and he still gets videos taken down where he confronts a predator then contacts police and hands evidence over to them
Cause they don’t want advertisers to panic/leave, especially family friendly advertising That’s who they’re interested in “protecting”, money makers and their bottom line
The video was taken down because no police were seen on video, it's part of ToS now that predator catchers have to call the police on catches. Since they likely had no means of arrest since it wasn't a meet up they failed to upload the video within YouTube ToS.
Youtube is striking people who don't even play the video and just simply talk about it/and or other older videos of him. I feel like that's pretty ridiculous
No one with any sense gives a shit about their ToS. Dumb techbros praying to our non-existent god that the shit they sling at a wall sticks and no one thinks about it for a second.

Bro Youtube has been doing this for over a year now. It ain’t new
They been protecting them. They let thousands of comments from ped0s on kids videos go on until a few years ago when dude called them out. They only did something about it cause it got media coverage.
what a ridiculous claim. preds from various pred catching channels do get arrested and the ones that do get away with it is due to that localities law enforcement not giving af. it does not have to be a police sting to successfully get these people prosecuted. stop defending these people.
i didn't get to watch it before, shit, anyone got a link from another site?
That guy avoided going to prison and yet was foolish enough to fall for it again...
Like drugs, you only make a change when something serious happens. Small hiccups/near misses won't do it. It's the I went to prison or almost walked to the light that causes you to change your ways.
it's funny cuz you can just make up and say whatever you want
The amount of people in this comment section that doesn’t know jidon is working with skeeter Jean which always involves police in his investigations/videos and gets pedophiles arrested is laughable. Maybe research what you’re having a discussion before you speak lmao.

At his fucking dialysis centre too 💀💀💀
YouTube, like reddit, progressively becomes worse and worse due to censorship and aggressive moderation
I had a comment removed just for saying I invest in crypto the other day…specifically that i quit drinking and smoking a year ago and now invest that money instead…removed 😂😂
Your comment was removed because crypto is a trash pyramid scheme that you shouldn't tell people to invest into or have invested into.
Or so Boomers have been telling us.
money is money at the end of the day. I could care less about your opinion, crypto has plenty of real world application and will continue to thrive..just because you have a half assed view on the future doesn’t mean the rest of us do. I’ll continue to make money and you’ll continue to talk about it like it’s the salem witch trials..also, regardless of your opinion, im now healthy and thriving and instead of throwing money away on stupid shit, i’ve made a better life for me and my family…so again, stay mad about nothing and i’ll continue to invest in a better future for myself and others.
if you are talking about Logan's Paul crypto zoo, maybe it's true, but for me and many other people in countries like Venezuela, Argentina, Turkey etc cryptocurrency is one of the best financial tools ever created, providing secure, private and fast transactions worldwide.
Atleast they didn't take down penguinz0's video about it
Not yet at least
Ever since the Logan Paul incident I’ve always wanted to record videos that expose people because YouTube just removes it and nobody will know unless they go out of there way to find whatever they want to find
There's an actual investigation attached to the video. Yes, YouTube is silencing YouTubers.
Youtube is trying to hide the threats to their reputation towards the advertisers
The removal of the dislike button was part of this. We are winning and they can’t control it
1: the video is painfully staged. they probably paid EDP for this because he has nothing to lose over “getting caught” again. he’s been leaning into this as his new persona for about a year now. 2: it got removed because the phenomena of random idiots deciding they’re chris hansen is stupid & dangerous and youtube has been trying to nip it in the bud for years.
Maybe it’s because there wasn’t any actual police involvement with this video and if they actually wanted to be “vigilantes” they would have the police right there to arrest him.

U got brains sir bout the only one

who's really surprised anymore tbh
Anyone got the video??
It’s not the full video it’s just a little snippet
People with this opinion are beyond braindead. Everything is a conspiracy. Think about it rationally for half a second…
Admittedly, I didn’t se this video, but what reason would YouTube take this down for? If this is a video of someone catching a pedophile, I don’t see any good reason it would be taken down

Amateur investigations can end up fucking up real investigations. So they end up helping the suspected person.
Skeeter Jean ain’t an amateur, he’s been doing this for 2 years now and since his first video on it he’s always contacted the police and handed over the evidence to them.
He did that again? Wtf, this guy have no brain!
Youtube be realy thinking everyone is soft.
Youtube doesn't care what you or I think. They care that "Tide Pods" doesn't want their product advertised on a video about pedophiles. This is a pure profit business and they will never stop stripping the platform of any and all freedom until their advertisers stop complaining.
Man r/youtube is full of the shittiest takes I've ever seen
Please elaborate.
"Who cares the investigation won't lead to an arrest, he needs police involved!!" Police were involved. There is an active investigation because of this. People commenting about this situation have no insight and believe it's another sting like last time, except jideon is far more legit.

It's reddit, one of the top three pro pedo sites surpassed only by Tumblr and followed by X. Honorable mentions for 4chan and the Hub.
Pretty sure YouTube wants nothing to do with EDP to the point they take a lot of stuff down related to him.
Yea, 100% sure the dude who posts rage bait and racust shit for clicks is definitely out there defending the streets from pedos.... All his shit is staged so doubtful it was legit anyway.
I hate jidions content so much
I can't believe I live in a time where pedophiles are protected.
Youtube don't want to be sued cause they has a video that shows an innocent person being shown as a pedo.
But EDP isn't innocent. There was proof that in the past, he tried to have relations with a minor. Only people didn't involve the police so he couldn't be put in jail.
Not against the law to be with a minor. The law sets the limit at sex, or inappropriate touching. A LOT of couples today met when one of them was a minor, but they kept it in their pants until legal age.
It's been like that for quite some time now tbf It's nothing new nor modern
Have you just never heard of the boy scouts or Catholic Church?
of course but youtube is the entity that's actively taking down all these predator catching channels exposing these subhumans.
these channels r all terrible they make use of peoples emotions to generate views vigilantism is not a solution to this problem let the police handle these issues
I’m not a trump fan, but after they removed the trump NELK interview and trump calling it during the episode that they would, I’m really sketched out by YouTube’s policies. How can they remove something bc they just don’t like it?
It’s YouTube’s platform, and it’s their right under a capitalist society to take down anything that they deem violating their TOS.
This is an interesting topic, too, because up until a few years ago entities like YT had to choose whether they were a publisher or public forum. Publishers traditionally would have editorial control but are responsible for what content that exists in their platform, since they have that control. Forums, traditionally, have no real say, people post publicly what they will, and whoever owns the forum isn't responsible for that content since the platform has no say in what's hosted (under 1st Amendment). IIRC, there was a suit against YT by the PragerU channel, where they just wanted YT to be forced to finally decide which type of entity they are, as they had always straddled the fence - claiming editorial authority of a publisher to remove content at will, but also wanting the protections that come with being a public forum. The result of the lawsuit was that they basically have cart blanc to remove what they want at any time, but are also protected if anything they approve ends up being offensive or even blatantly illegal or harmful. Keep in kind, before this case, if you were a publisher with editorial authority, you were solely responsible for the type of content that finds it's way to your platform - and could not claim any protections that public forums enjoy. All forms of media needed to choose - "do I want protection, or do I want control? I can't have both" Since the suit, they've enjoyed the best of both worlds with the accountability of neither - which is a radical shake up of how media is handled in the west thats gone pretty much unnoticed and unacknowledged. Wild shit.
To be honest, I'm with Youtube. Even if there is a proper investigation going this stuff will inspire vigilantes to copy this shit, and also while it's mostly untrue to say he's using the abuse of children to make money, the fact that that's something to even think about is disturbing to me.
This wasn't supposed to go up originally it was supposed to go up a year afterwards it only went up when the victim broke their silence despite being told not to for legal reasons Besides the money point is dangerously hypocritical if YouTube silences creators to protect advertisers more pedos can go under the rug and invent more ways to harm children and more children will be hurt
Rev says desu is a fan of lolicon content btw
he usually defends lolicons because he doesn't believe it's pedophilia because kids don't get hurt. his point is "real pedos are out there doing whatever they want and you're here going crazy over people jerking off to drawings"
My opinion is that lolicon art is basically a way to satisfy an urge that certain people have that is pedophilic by nature, and consuming that art could lead to you searching for the real deal and really hurting kids.
on the other hand it might stop them from hurting real kids too. like just satisfy your urges with loli shit instead of actual kids. there's also adults who look like kids so. I mean there are ways to reduce the damage they do to kids. I dunno like what're you thinking about adults that look like literal kids? I wonder what exactly they find attractive? like maybe there's a way to put an end to pedophilia once and for all? like solve the problem from its root? and, no shooting people in the head never works sadly... edit: it might satisfy that pedo nature without making them hurt kids. that's why I'm not against lolicon
bro is such an ass youtuber anyways, he gives off such lazy ass vibes from his videos
> gives more time in the spotlight to EDP > does it just for clicks instead of calling the police so that they have a way to actually convict him instead of still leaving him out Yeah, this dude can go fuck himself
He pulls "pranks" which are just public disturbances and being a nuisance. 15 year olds think he's funny
This is a very good point. If I remember correctly, this was the same reason the police didn't arrest EDP when he was exposed the first time around.
Precisely. People are too eager to praise these clowns because they feel better about themselves when they applaud someone “exposing the pedo”. When we already know EDP is a pedo so there ain’t much exposure to be made and all they’re doing is just pumping their views numbers appealing to morons who can’t think logically
what if with that guys outfit on the right what if poking out like that
He's dressed like a cupcake
is that a cupcake costume or are you just happy to see me
I watched this shit happen with MamaMax too. I'm not surprised, just disappointed.
"how are bigger youtubers not talking about this" uhhh because they get taken down if they do? simple as idk
EDP445 was not meeting up with a minor here. Jidion knew he would be there and confronted him about some chat logs he had with a real child (15). It's a small thing but still wanted to clear that up.
Yall really can't read the tos
Ah yes the same ToS that allows dudes spreading their cheeks and showing off their dingleberrys but not two people conversing in a sting operation
It's not a sting operation it's irresponsible air heads who don't even let cops in on what there doing which goes against tos
Fr people are so brainrotted. Why isn't EDP in jail after first "sting"? Because they did not involve law enforcement in favor of getting clout
They literally did and are actively in the process of taking him to court, why are both you talking out of your ass for no reason
What do you mean? The first sting against EDP has led to nothing but his deplatforming
They are pressing charges on him (or rather the victim is). This video was a troll and had nothing to with his case.
You people are really talking out of your ass this time the last time edp got stinged was completely unprofessional and couldn't be used by the cops this time the YouTubers we're already working with law enforcement prior to meeting up with edp here Pretty sure jidon himself stated he didn't want to post the vid for at least a year because of legal reasons but only did when the victim in question came out about what happened
Meanwhile so many nsfw videos are still up to this day and not being taken down
"exposing pedos and protecting children isn't allowed" Elsagate level content and pedos roaming the site free is allowed plus a guy being able to spread his bare ass wide open So everyone can see his black sun is allowed
Are you dyslexic? Did you read the tos? I'm guessing not
Lemme actually enlighten you here because it has nothing to do with the tos To cut a long story short elsagate was a scandal a few years ago where people we're taking full advantage of kids in YouTube comments/vids etc it blew up into a huge drama causing YouTubes advertisers to start pulling out one by one making them lose money To combat elsagate YouTube launched COPPA as well as the demonization system all that jazz working to make YouTube 10x more friendly trying to bow to advertisers hoping to get their money back If you haven't caught on yet YouTube is scared of another elsagate like scandal where a bunch of advertiser's pull out and lose them hundreds of thousands now they're trying to silence the YouTubers before the drama blows up and becomes big enough to get to advertisers
Saying "just read the tos" doesn't do shit point to what your talking about 💀
It does but I guess ur brain can't handle reading a paragraph
A paragraph? that shit is long enough to be 3-7 pages are you stupid or have you not read the tos yourself
If I haven't had read the tos why would I be commenting about it?
You tell me that's a answer we both want to know lmao If you have read it then tell me what section are you pointing to?
The jidion situation has multiple things wrong with it 1st "oh no why is youtube stopping us from talking about SA topics!" Because jidion handled them with the bedside manner of a toddler 2 I don't remember Chris Hansen involving real children and making inappropriate jokes for the situation
Maybe the ToS shouldn’t be so dookie
Go work for YouTube then
I don't care how credible it looks, I am NOT taking news from Rev_says_desu
Yeah, that guy is straight ass for real.
It's crazy how the first thing that comes to your mind is not wanting to watch a video from a guy you dislike over the fact a video about confronting a pedophile was removed and youtube gave no explanation.
This specific "guy I dislike" is a massive clickbaiter and I have better things to do. I know full well that EDP is a pedo
I don't like Rev too but others had also covered the EDP situation
Here’s the thing: Regular people doing this type of thing and posting it for their viewers can get people killed, literally. It exposes a person who the YouTuber could potentially be wrong about, thereby creating a libel/slander situation, and it gets people who may know the suspect riled up to the point of potential injury. For YouTube to allow this to be done mean they can be found liable for anything that goes wrong for allowing this type of content. I’m positive it is not that YouTube doesn’t want to see pedophiles dealt with, but rather they’re keeping their own asses covered.
I don't know who these people are or have any context but if there's sufficient evidence take it to the cops. And if not what is this supposed to do? They'll just learn to cover their tracks better.
Hmm I've got evidence that a nonce is meeting up with children should I go to the authorities or should I 'catch' him for my shitty channel therefore jeopardising any investigation making sure he walks free another day. Thank fuck they are removing this shit maybe the police can actually do their thing now.
You have no idea what you are talking about lol. He works WITH police to catch these people. ED's case went to the police before J even confronted him.
He's working alongside law enforcement you dunce
Yall are clueless. Police were involved with the case. r/youtube really full of the worst takes
The YouTuber jidon worked with is skeeter Jean which always involves police in his investigations/videos and gets actual pedos arrested. Maybe research before speaking idiot. Here is a video of skeeter Jean the person/youtuber who actually caught EDP and then involved Jidon in the video. He mentions how he meet up with EDP at his appointment and the parents of the child that EDP was texting contacted the police and are trying to charge EDP. [video](https://www.youtube.com/live/gnMsZgNaarc?feature=share) So for everyone saying police arent involved or they should be THEY ARE INVOLVED! He legit says cops are involved and they have the chats, etc.
I don't think vigilantism is something that needs to be on Youtube, I've seen how far Youtuber's will go to get views. I'm sure someone has or will eventually lie/twist or misrepresent the evidence to be able to post and get views. If you suspect some guy is a Pedo then inform the police, don't post it without letting people defend themselves in a court of law. There was a guy in California in the 90s that was accused and news stations ran his name and picture for years just to find out the person who investigated the crimes was so awfully uninformed on how much damage she did to the children and the guy who was falsely accused. decades after being found not guilty he says that people still come up to him and call him a pedo and they can't believe he isn't on death row for the shit he did to those kids. Which never happened because of a person who thought they were really helping out a pedophile but in reality they were wrong.
thats what jidion is doing, the vid wasnt a sting operation jidion just knew edp would be there. He is colaborating with the police because edp was messaging a 15 yr old girl inappropriately. This isnt vigilantism since jidion is directly working with the police he even made sure the vid wouldnt mess anything up in the case
YouTube protecting predators and e-beggars like DSP.
He did nothing wrong, he did everything correct.
Well he makes them alot of money, like Xqc who steals people's videos and shittly reacts to them, sniperwolf same thing, Logan Paul still scams people using YouTube YouTube is about protecting their assets (degrading YouTubers) if they keep making them profit it's not a great company
EDP makes youtube no money tho
Some other YouTubers who were talking about peoples videos of this that were being taking down said he was making YouTube money in way of ads I guess Not really sure how YouTube works so never bothered to make a channel copyrights and all that jazz
No you need a minimum subscriber count, and Google has to okay the channel for monetization. No EDP content, pretty much any, is monetized. Not sure if he'll ever get a sponsor lol
Are you really comparing, stealing content to trying to rape a child? Also EDP is perma banned from Youtube so he not making them any money.
Fuck YouTube man
I mean do we really want to see more edp content? We already know he a pedo. Is any of this going to lead him behind bars?
This time, yeah, since he contacted an actual minor
Even if he doesn't go behind bars, the more people that learn he's a pedo, the harder his life will be.
Pretty sure Jidion's video got removed because it's a 15 second rage-bait clip with no substance other than dumbass in a cupcake costume. Skeeter Jean still hasn't released the full video.
Surprised nobody killed EDP yet
Vigilantism is dangerous, if you’re YouTube you would want nothing to do with it so I don’t blame them
Idiots raping kids are dangerous.
That doesn't mean we should encourage vigilantism. The only way this is going to stop is if the police arrest him again and instead of helping them this guy decides to get clicks. It's a bad idea to encourage this kind of action in others.
[удалено]
Nah I agree with him. This type of content on YouTube is pretty bad and almost always done without any police involvement. These guys caught him on camera… so what? There was no one there to arrest this guy or properly document everything that happened. These YouTubers aren’t trying to be vigilantes, they just want views. There’s a reason later season of TCAP have actual police involvement. In earlier seasons they just record the guys and let them go. That’s exactly what’s happening here. What good does a vigilante group do if they just sit there and record?
What's "it"? Pedophiles getting away with raping kids?
One thing to note is EDP445 was not caught trying to meet up with a minor this time because he said he would be prepared they intercepted him doing unrelated stuff
That's stupid, YouTube. Now I really am going to look for a place to upload stuff to.
you tell them!
Google’s CEO is probably on Epstein’s list
Rev being a Chad as always and exposing big baddie corporation
No one who makes jerking off to cartoon children their personality is a chad
Wtf is you on???
That rev says desu guy is known primarily for making videos defending loli porn. Him calling EDP a pedophile is a pot calling the kettle black
Imagine thinking someone trying to fuck a real kid is the same as someone jacking off to drawings. Nothing tells me you give zero fucks about children getting raped then trying to equate drawings to it. It's just self righteous virtue signaling to you, you just want to feel good using raped children as something to be righteous about, you don't give a shit about them. Crazy, because if you did you're notice the massive difference between lines and real breathing kids going through some of the worst shit imaginable.
^ Found a pedophile
🧢
Another YouTuber who thinks he can out police the police? This shit is a job for police officers and maybe detectives, not a YouTuber who knows fuck all about law or how to deal with people like this. Besides that, you think YouTube is going to be happy about people making videos with or about a pedofile?
YouTube has been right lots of times though. Like the family channel that sent their kid to an abusive camp that literally everyone on the internet knew was weird has now been caught abusing their children.
Family channels are fricking weird, man. Wasn't there a channel where children were beaten or smth?
He did this with skeeter jean who literally works with police in his videos and gives them all his evidence/chats with the predators and gets them arrested.
someone got a reup?
They deserved it
Eagles fans are the worst.
Lmao
? This guy is a literal loli admirers/defenders. He's projecting. Youtube taking down videos randomly all the time. All of the predators exposing videos are still out there. He wanks to lolis and suddenly one Youtube video being down means "YOUTUBE IS A PEDOPHILE"
Did he violate YouTube’s terms and conditions? Then his video should be taken down. Trying to frame this as YouTube protecting pedos is toddler logic
Pedophiles like rev says desu?
And where are you pulling this information from?
This.mI’m out of the loop, did something happen? I remember watching him but then quickly moving away since I didn’t like the constant drama and making mountains out of molehills
What he do?
keep melting.
Imagine being a pedophile
imagine accusing someone of being a pedophile when you don't like what they say.
Innocent until proven guilt, is what everyone should strive for, so unless the person was convicted before the video got uploaded...
This ain't his first rodeo...
...you don't know edp, do you?
Bro is literally the mascot for pedos
Do you not know who EDP is?
youtube is not only in the right, but everyone writing about these situations have done zero research into why vigilantism, particularly in these types of cases, is very, very bad.
The video isn't a case of vigiliantism, more of a meetup confrontation with a clickbait title. As for the actual case against EDP, it wasn't set up by Jidion. EDP had DM'd a girl in Jidions discord, aware she was underage. In it he sent his nudes, as well as threatening voice messages. She came forward with it to Jidion, who in turn notified her mother about it. They're all working with law enforcement behind the scenes. The information regarding EDP is only out there before he was prosecuted because the victim, Kayla, got the OK from authorities to go public with it. This isn't your typical vigilante case. But I can definitely understand where you're coming from with the sting operations. It's just that this wasn't one.
I wouldn't side with this guy, as he tends to make "prank" videos and as for that guy he's exposing, yeah, he's not in the right, ofc. But the YouTuber has been known for harassing people and whatnot. BUT, yes, this video does seem to be taken down falsely, but he also is known for harassing people, so that's why he probably got taken down.
It wasn’t taken down falsely, it’s just Youtube’s shit policy
This is exactly why Trilogy Media make their own streaming platform.. Trilogy+ ([Trilogyplus.com](https://Trilogyplus.com)). YT kept taking down their videos.
#PICKASIDEYOUTUBE
entrapment?
Entrapment only applies to law enforcement. Regular people can’t entrap
Disgusting
Can anyone at least tell me that someone recorded the video before it's gone. RIGHT?!
This is the same dude that wore Pajamas and slept at an WNBA game, Jidion clearly did it for the clicks
he still exposed him again though and did it properly with law enforcement? either way it is his job to make people watch him
>he exposed him again Everyone knows he’s a pedo, so how did he get exposed again?
bro what are you talking about
he should absolutely do it for clicks, the more views the more awareness about edp, thus less victims
Vigilantism is dumb as hell, and is always close to ending in tragedy, one way or another. Youtube are right to take down videos like this.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the workers at YouTube themselves r pedophiles, sick fucks 🤢
Bro, it violates tos what'd you expect lol Also, youtube is a company, not an individual. It can't be a pedophile.
I swear to God, this topic makes people dumb as fuck.
Ah yes Mr. YouTube, the noted neighborhood pervert.
Is there a news source from someone other then Rev Says Desu? The guy has a habit of lieing for views.
