The popular video streaming site YouTube has cut off business ties with popular vlogger Logan Paul. This video blogger gave a biography of a dead body and posted a video of the controversy.
Paul's channels have been removed from Google's Google Preferred program under Google. Through this program, various organizations of the platform are advertised for the top five percent content creator of the platform.
The main projects of the US vlogger have also been postponed, YouTube said.
Paul posted the controversial video on December 31, 2017. In the video, Paul and his friends are walking through forests of Aokigahara in Japan. At that time, they stumbled in a dead body that they thought of committing suicide. This forest is called 'Suicide Forest'. Many people in Japan are known to have chosen this place for suicide.
On Twitter, there are about 39.2 million followers who have been criticizing Paul for this video. He later removed the video and apologized for his 'inappropriate' behavior on Twitter. Paul found more than one and a half million subscribers on his own channel, and said, "I'm ashamed of myself. I'm frustrated with myself. "
In the face of severe criticism from users, YouTube gave a statement at that time. In this statement, the policy of banning violence and other compliant content is made clear. At that time YouTube said, "We have sympathy for the family of the person shown on the video. YouTube does not support abusive, intimidating or abusive violence or posting any bloody content. "
The body of the body was not yet known, the BBC report said.
