I do not like Prince Ea's cringy "motivational" clickbait content. It turns out that when you criticize his videos, he becomes unglued. I'm not surprised. After removing both Boyinaband's video and my video and adding copyright strikes to our channels, Prince Ea stirred the drama pot by uploading a video called "A Response to My Haters". And boy, was it a juicy turd. If Ea thought dirty Doctor Downvote wouldn't dissect that turd and feed it back to him, he was mistaken. Prince says criticism should come in the form of an email. I refuse to comply.

Some of the exhibitionist mommies in the Youtube breastfeeding community are building massive followings by exploiting a loophole in Youtube's nudity policies. Queen of them all is Sexy Spiritual Tasha Mama, who sees nothing wrong with her viewers sexualizing her content. In fact, she's openly using her popular channel to sell “sexy clips”. Join Doctor Downvote as we take a closer, critical look at the content of Spiritual Tasha Mama.

This video is the result of a deep dive on Daddyofive's channel that began with a Reddit tip on r/nerdcity over a month ago. After the abusive nature of Mike Martin's content was exposed by Philip DeFranco this past week, the situation around Daddyofive's channel has been rapidly evolving. The family's more than 265 videos have now been either removed or set to private. But for over a year, Daddyofive built a massively popular channel on the back of this disturbing content with little to no media attention. This is what we found when researching his content prior to this becoming a trending story.

What kind of a dad would do this? Wonder no more! It's time to go inside in the mind of DaddyoFive, the “Worst Dad on Youtube”! Doctor Downvote has gotten his hands on the original disappearing ink that once belonged to DaddyOFive, used in their ill-fated “Disappearing Ink Prank” which lit the powder keg of controversy that (has almost) destroyed their channel. With Cody and Emma granted a protection order against father Mike Martin and taken out of the home by Maryland CPS, and nearly all of their videos now set to “private”, it may seem as if the DaddyoFive channel is no more, but it's not dead yet. Using that ink, and award belonging to Philip DeFrano, Doctor Downvote puts evil science to work and figures out what kind of a man would create content that celebrated the misery of children.

The conclusion to our horrible DaddyOFive trilogy examines the people drawn to Mike Martin's abusive content, who are still congregating to attack his enemies and awaiting his return. In his most recent Tweet, DaddyOFive encouraged his followers ("real fans ONLY!") to go join a Facebook group. What's inside that toxic community? And what kind of comments did they leave on his (now) private videos? Come with Doctor Downvote as we take a closer look at "Team DO5."

If an apology involves a stripper pole, does it count as double? RiceGum's replies to idubbbz' Content Cop were so astonishingly misguided that Doctor Downvote had to take a closer look, and go inside the mind of this imaginary rap artist.

Has a video been demonetized, removed from recommended, or buried by search? These codes will tell you why. When Youtube's automated demonetization bot determines that an upload features non-advertiser friendly content, secret codes are attached to the video's metadata. Some of these numbers have now been decoded. Additionally, there is now statistical evidence that these demonetized videos are being suppressed within Youtube's search and discovery algorithms.
