⚠There are two parts to this video. The first part is the things that will get you banned, the second part is about your safety as a creator. I put time stamps so you can easily find the safety part because it's the most important. Make sure you at least watch the safety part.

I am glad YouTube keeps on recommending these educative videos to my page, big up to you

[TrishaSmith]

One piece of advice that I took from you when you first spoke about the protection and the email stuff is that if you reach out to brand first, then you know that you’ve done the official thing because you’ve gone to the official website however if after that, you get a brand-new one of them acting like they don’t know that you want to work with them you know it’s a scam because you’ve already got the thread going about that subject.

Great video Nick. I have used pictures of celebrities in some of my thumbnails, however as you said, it was only because I talked about them in my video, and I always sourced my pictures so I could legally use them. Thank you for the comment about the music and keeping a copy of the license even if it was free to use, it wasn't something I had realized.

The whole video is a masterclass - I'd watch this one multiple times.

Really a masterpiece - I am a small hobby content creator and I do not need most of this information - but still could not stop watching the entire video -how could you encompass all the great information in just 12 min - that is a brutal talent and you should be proud.

Most of the times we assume things ...even things we think simple may be a big NO NO for youtube ...so appreciate for putting this video out.

This is so very valuable -- as an education and as a reminder. Critical information in both areas, YouTube and personal safety.

I literally had someone go to my vets office and try to get my address. Luckily my vet didn’t give out my info.

[HELLO-JESS]

WOW Nick! Thank you so much for this information! Appreciate you.
