YouTuber admits to using \u201cincest clickbait\u201d to get views touchdalight, YouTube \/ Adobe StockControversial YouTuber \u2018touchdalight\u2019 went live in a video rant against Drama Alert host Daniel \u2018KEEMSTAR\u2019 Keem on December 21, where he admitted that he uses a startling tactic to pull in viewers. Touchdalight openly admitted to using what he called \u201cincest clickbait\u201d in his thumbnails to get views, claiming that he regularly passes off his 18-year-old friend as his little sister in order to profit from his audience\u2019s apparent disgust. \u201cYeah, no shit, I use incest clickbait,\u201d the YouTuber stated. \u201cIt\u2019s funny for me. I literally pretend my 18-year-old friend is my sister and people literally get triggered about my shit, and I get money and I get views.\u201d Touchdalight went on to call out KEEMSTAR for criticising his content, calling him a \u201cmassive pussy\u201d and an \u201cold ugly man\u201d due to his own YouTube show, Drama Alert, where he covers current events within the internet entertainment realm. KEEMSTAR went on to clarify his stance on touchdalight\u2019s content, admitting that while he doesn\u2019t support the attacking of another creator\u2019s channel, he doesn\u2019t understand YouTube\u2019s current drive to delete \u2018problematic\u2019 videos while apparently glossing over channels such as touchdalight\u2019s. Touch by the light clarification. pic.twitter.com\/y6If0zDRHO \u2014 KEEM :popcorn: (@KEEMSTAR) December 21, 2018 \u201cI just don\u2019t understand how his channel is unaffected but some of these others are,\u201d KEEMSTAR explained. \u201cI\u2019m not trying to get his channel taken down, I\u2019m trying to understand why.\u201d This debacle follows YouTube\u2019s purging of hundreds of sexually suggestive videos by alleged \u2018family-oriented\u2019 channels, after the content was picked up by commentator \u2018PaymoneyWubby.\u2019 Since then, YouTube has placed a strict handle on adult content \u2013 but their methods have been widely decried by YouTubers across the platform.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
