I check youtube for f.f stuff often. I save many of the great video's that I can. However, it seemed that 1/3 of the video's that i have saved were deleted for copyright or "sexual content". Any one else notice this from the last 2 weeks?

No, haven't noticed any changes within' the past 2 weeks but as far as foot-fetish videos being removed from youtube, it's been going on for years.

Yeah I've noticed a bunch of accounts being closed / deleted by Youtube lately. Seems they are targeting "repeat" offenders (those uploading multiple videos) and vids which Youtube deems "explicit sexual content" (whatever that means).
It seems you can upload one vid and be pretty much safe however if you have a bunch of the same themed stuff it seems you can get hit by Youtube anytime. Funny thing is, there are some foot fetish vids that have been up for 3 years with thousands of hits, and then there are some vids with less than 3 hours on Youtube and a few dozen view counts that get deleted right away.
Not sure how this whole thing really works.......

A lot of videos are probably deleted less for the content and more for the comments. Take a look at the incredibly retarded tone of most comments and you'll see why people are flagging the videos as sexual content. The best thing uploaders can do is to disable comments and just let people discuss them on private boards like Wu's. Fly low and under the radar. Nothing sexual to the mainstream about a girl spreading her toes, but once you have a hundred "I want to stick my cock between her soles" comments it obviously gets flagged.

its so random. all it has to do is get reported by people enough times. the wrong person reports you, then you get reported a couple times and BAM they delete you no questions asked. the ToS is so vague that they can just about delete you for anything.
in all honesty you cant really blame them tho, as they are just protecting their own ass. but with as much money as google makes they should be able to handle sexual content a lil better. not saying they should flat out add porn but they should be able to excuse themselves via disclaimer if some kids get around some R rated (or G rated for that matter) material. i mean i understand vids getting removed for copyright infringement but material thats merely suggestive should not be considered sexual.
im actually wondering if i SHOULD terminate comments and have people inbox me if they want to say something. i dont really even need the like/dislike. i can see by views how many people like each vid. and out of hundreds of thousands of views i have less than 50 dislikes.

I was looking at youtube yesterday and saw a ton of content.
I know what you mean about some things being removed.
I had saved links to videos and when I wanted to watch them again, I saw deleted account, etc.
Didn't get the impression there was an anti-foot fetish campaign going on.
besides...I thought about reporting some videos where the females look underage and they are responding to 'fan request'...and another bizare thing I have seen is the 'Sara needs this request so she gets an A' scam.
