#ig metall und youtube union
The YouTubers Union just merged with IG Metall, the largest independent trade union IN THE WORLD (2.3 MILLION members) under a joint venture. If successful, it will cause a domino effect across all tech companies, causing a mass of unionization against companies across silicon valley, like Google, Facebook, etc.
And you know who’s leading the charge?
The absolute unit of a man who runs the Slingshot channel
You can find their video here
they’re demanding:
- Transparency in how videos are flagged by bots, and why they were specifically blocked/demonization
- Clear rules, exact reasoning on choices made by YouTube
- No more more “machine” responces for counter claims and challenges, demanding an actual human representative
- Independent dispute resolution. A 3rd neutral party to help lay judgement on serious claims
- Participation. Giving a voice on YouTube policy to YouTubers
They have given YouTube 4 weeks to enter negotiations with them over this.
[Laughs in Slingshot]
Hey, I did a 5-second Google search and couldn’t find a scrap of information about this, so it’s more then likely complete bullshit
you searched but did not even find his youtube channel?

EDIT: dude the video is linked in the post itself
There was nothing in the Google News tab about any kind of demands towards YouTube
but.. the video is right there. what does it matter if someone reported on it?
here are 2 german newspapers (2 of the biggest) and IGMs report on it:
