With most of us spending our time on YouTube videos, it is no surprise that YouTube offers with a wide variety of videos, from how-to videos to ads, from teasers to full movies, from songs to TV shows. You will find just about every possible video. Different organizations and individuals work full time towards YouTube, and with such easy access, the important question is if YouTube has a good or a bad influence on society and youth? The open access to YouTube and its content allows a person to upload almost anything and everything, which in turn has a negative or a positive impact.

Political Ads There are many political ads on YouTube which deal with the current issues, leading the viewers to create their own opinion and response and fuel further discussion. This can sometimes be negative. Quite a lot of content found on YouTube is related to politics in some form. Politics has become such a common topic as it allows conversation, discussion, and debates. Now if a viewer has been following a channel for a long time, they develop a certain sense of trust in them and their content. It becomes easy to manipulate and influence the views and believes of a person and can be used to exploit people. Free Speech One of the many challenges faced by YouTube is that open access allows people from all around the world to view things and post their comments on it. These people take advantage of their anonymity and use it as a tool to degrade other people and post bad remarks. A speech voiced in one part of the world can spark chaos in another. It is difficult for companies to predict what words and images may cause mayhem elsewhere and building that algorithm can be a complicated task. Sharing Apart from all this, the most significant about YouTube is that it allows you to share information with other people. You can learn new things in the comfort of your own house, what else can be better than this? You must have seen people growing from zero to heroes all because of YouTube and seeing their stories can be very inspiring and motivating, but at the same time, it can be demotivating for some people. Providing free YouTube subscribers, it has become one of the most cost-efficient ways to gain fame and popularity. With all that said, it is difficult to come to a conclusion and point out at the negatives and positives of YouTube. One's personal opinion can greatly reflect how they see YouTube and what they take from it. Those who view YouTube as a place to share and watch videos can happily accept the influence it brings.
