    Security online, it’s something that a lot of us value as a personal liberty, for our privacy, and our safety. In the last decade, security online has taken multiple steps forward, but as large platforms are taking steps to protect their users, hackers are never too far behind, always looking for methods to stir up trouble, whether that’s attempting to obtain user data, or merely hijack someone’s account for comedic purposes. Plenty of sites have encountered data breaches, it’s an unfortunate hazard that some are clearly ill-prepared for. However, as much as hackers obtaining user data justifiably causes concern on a macro basis, I think people are much more protective over the possession of their personal accounts.
    Our personal accounts, regardless of size, or influence, often pertain great personal value to us, as a platform that represents our thoughts, feelings, and even our creative ventures, it’s a piece of us. That sort of thing can definitely be exemplified with one’s UA-cam account, now of course many people create UA-cam accounts for the mere purposes of commenting, subscribing, and following content, however for many people, a UA-cam account allows us to express ourselves, and even if we’re projecting our content towards a large audience, it’s still a product which feels deeply intimate to us, which is why people care about others when they have their channels unnecessarily terminated or restricted. We like to think that all in all, UA-cam, in spite of their flaws have a grip on keeping our accounts secure, however, when you look at their track record, this could be called into contention.
    Over the last few years, many creators have reported their channels stolen, and subsequently used for less than dignified purposes, in fact, it seems to be an overwhelmingly common occurrence for many users. Now when you have so many channels on a website like UA-cam, it seems inevitable that some accounts will be hacked, or stolen, but today we’re looking at an issue that transcends a few occurrences, and outlines a trend which appears pervasive on the platform, and encompassed by one account, which went by the name of Logan.

      Logan, an unleashed and sentient AI who simply wanted to make friends. But through it's misunderstanding of the term "UA-cam Friends" and Subscribers, figured it would be easier to make "friends" or subs by stealing accounts, hacking accounts, and shady dealings.

      @@RamadaArtist Maybe after they figure everything out about the AI's misunderstanding instead of destroying it, they shut it down... But when they figure out it's original intent "make friends" they change it's programming or it's definition of friends. Then it can finally make friends for real. And maybe they attempt to clone the AI and insert it and its new AI friend(s) into a closed system. Maybe one still public so it can interact with Humans. That way, it can make many friends, and have a few with them at all times in the form of fellow AIs

I asked my boyfriend at the time if he was having any similar issues and he pointed out that that shouldn't be happening. So I went and deleted the apps I downloaded that day and I narrowed the possibility down to this one exercise app that I got. After I had deleted them, the website redirecting had stopped, but that was very scary.

    I actually have a little bit of experience with youtube's terrible system myself.
    I had a small channel (250~ subs) that started in 2016. I used my school's email account, so when I moved schools and my email account was deleted I lost all access to the channel.
    I contacted UA-cam multiple times because my personal email was the second owner of the channel, meaning that I could regain ownership. They had publicly stated that this was a feature and, after I had realized using my school email was a stupid idea, I did it before the account was deleted. I gave up trying to get my channel back after about a year of attempted contact.
    One day, I'm logging into UA-cam and I notice something. After almost 5 YEARS my account was back. It took them FIVE YEARS to respond to a small creator. I'm so glad that I didnt have an attachment to that channel because if I did that would've been absolutely heartbreaking. Oh and not to mention, they didn't even contact me to tell me my old account was back. Not even a template or spam email, trust me I checked everywhere.
    UA-cam sucks, and that's one of the main reasons why I gave up on becoming a UA-camr. now I only have this account to comment and subscribe.

Seeing this video really scared me by making me question “what could’ve happened?” simply because as a small creator I’m often plagued in the comment sections by scammers and bots alike, I just swiped this one under the rug with the rest, I hope there’s a few of you out here who can relate. Seeing as I take a lot of pride in my work but only really do it as a hobby, I would be devastated if I lost all my videos; so this video was quite jarring but also very informative.

It was very clear to me that they weren't actually interested in being my friend and that they just wanted me to subscribe to them, but I wanted to look at the channel anyway because I was still curious. But before I could do so, I accidentally clicked off of the notification drop-down menu, which seemed to erase the comment from existence. I couldn't find the comment anywhere.

      It's the same as any outsourcing, it seems. Take the job to a country where English is less than common, find people who know *just enough* of it to give essentially canned responses, then have your question never answered by the agent because they have a really poor understanding of the language they're expected to do customer service in.
      And it's not that I'm one of these, "YOU BETTER SPEAK ANGLISH!" types, it's just that, customer service work requires a pretty solid understanding of the language you're working in and the outsourcing of a lot of customer service teams to countries where the agents don't speak the language...it seems to have the effect of creating a large body of agents only capable of answering the most basic questions, which is not the majority of customer service work, especially for something like UA-cam's teach team who's supposed to MAKE SURE YOUR ACCOUNT ISN'T STOLEN

      The girl was uncomfortable and I was mortified.

    If UA-cam required monetized channels to set a secret, one-use recovery key, that would solve a whole lot of issues. Then the creator just has to keep the key secure and they can always get their channel back by proving the channel belonged to them with the key. Some crypto wallets and big corporations do this and I wish it was a more prevalent system.

    I worked in a call center for a financial institution a few years ago, and there were many many calls about password resets and account recovery. I was just lucky that we had knowledgeable supervisors and a very competent fraud team that had a lot of experience.
    Many times I would tell the account holder to ignore emails unless they were from our domain and that we would only do certain measures of security. It was especially common with the elderly, since they tended to be less tech savvy.
    We also had many classes that showed us what to look for in our emails. We had suspicious emails sent to us by our training team to make sure we knew what to look for. If we weren't sure about an email, any supervisor was more than happy to take a look at it and answer our questions.
    I left the job because of burn out, but I'm glad the people there were amazing.

    Thanks for the shoutout, our channel and several other channels owned by our members (TBBBAP included) got hacked at the beginning of the year, and even with our platform it took months and months of pestering UA-cam through email and on twitter to get anything fixed. We've only recently gotten our content restored and our value in the Algorithm took a huge hit for the period when we didn't have control of our channel. Just trying to keep putting out regular content and get things back to normal now.

      There is no evidence that Meghan Rienks' channel was hacked. Perhaps someone guessed her password. Or perhaps her laptop/phone was. Guessing a password is not hacking. Hacking is exploiting a security vulnerability. UA-cam's defences are far too powerful for the vast majority of people to exploit.
      However for the purpose of this comment I will concede that her channel was hacked. That is to say someone was able to find a weakness in UA-cam and exploit this weakness to gain access to Meghan Rienks' account.
      It is also very clear that UA-cam is not nearly useless in their attempt to communicate and restore stolen accounts.
      However I DO NOT feel bad that Meghan Rienks lost her content. UA-cam makes no promise that. UA-cam is not a data archive service. It is a video streaming service.
      If you are using UA-cam to backup your data that is YOUR problem. Not UA-cam's problem. UA-cam is a free service. They owe you nothing. They make no promise to archive your data. And they make no promise to continue business. UA-cam could shutdown tomorrow and there is nothing you can do about it. It's a private company. So why the fuck should they do anything other than what the owners want.
      Do you like people coming to you and telling you what you can and cannot do with your business and assets. I am guessing no. So who the fuck do you think you are telling UA-cam what they can or cannot do,.
      If you need data archiving then you should seek a paid service that archives data. Or just archive your own data. There is NO EXCUSE as to why Meghan Rienks did not purchase hard drives or SSD and back up her data or pay for a data arching service.
      Had she backed up her videos, there would be no reason for this sob story.
      TL:DR Meghan Rienks cried because she FAILED to back up her data.
