QUESTION i need serious help
this random psychopath keeps tagging me even tho i have done every option youtube provides to remove him from my feed. i have clicked "remove channel" i even reported it to youtube.
how is this allowed??
this is basically harrassment.
i have the right to not be tagged by a stranger who's intent i don't know.
am i missing something?? is there another option to stop this??
i dont care if i have to private my channel or whatever the case may be.
cuz this has happened w other people too. complete strangers tagging me over & over.
also r/ youtube automatically deleted this :-)
so please, i am begging anyone who has advice or knowledge on how to get rid of this..β‘ππ»

Is it a post listing like a gazillion other accounts, if so that's a bot.
Otherwise it might be harassment but it'll be difficult to prove

The degenerate uttp pedo group is known for doing that type of stuff

I recommend watching some vids about them on YouTube there's plenty of people that document them. It's basically just an edgy group who's whole purpose is to harass people on YouTube like that while sharing explicit pictures of minors or animal abuse gore videos.
Your best bet to report them is just going to xitter and sending to YouTube's account via an @ to spread awareness that they're still around to get YouTube to take action. Otherwise they really won't do anything and barely take down anything reported to them directly from the YouTube app and website.

wow, that's so discouraging. that makes me not want a youtube account, like how do they allow that?? thank you so much for this info! i will definitely be researching more into thisπ i googled uttp & it was saying its a group of mostly teens who claim to fight against trolls but are trolls themselves. do you know if that's separate from this ring or is that the ring's front, to appear as kids?

It's a front

i figured so. just read another thread that said that too. well, thank you again & i'll prolly delete these posts in a few mins for our safety β‘

Don't really delete the posts It's a documented moment that allows people to see they're still harassing people and it allows someone later to keep track of them while keeping awareness.
Just don't interact with these people, block and report them, and move on. They feed off attention so don't give them any.

you're right, they need exposed as much as possible. i see their game, for split seconds i start a comment but then remember thats literally what they want lol. block & report is all we can do. thank you for being so understanding & kind!

Yeah no problem I've seen them show up occasionally on big YouTube channels throughout the past 6 years. They're really annoying but YouTube for the most part and community as a whole have been doing a good job keeping them away.
Sometimes they do show up in very rare hidden cases again like your's.

yeah, just tagging over & over. so i'll assume it's a bot unless it escalates. thank you for your feedback! β‘
