the whole thing is a disaster... if you go to read a comment, clicking on the person's name sends you right back to the video. there are now MORE 'trolls' posting than ever before, especially since the character limitations have been eliminated- and so much more!!! if you so much as delete your google plus account it deletes your whole youtube account. the whole thing doesn't promote like-minded people coming together to effect any sort of change; it just promotes groupthink.
and then there's this:

and p.s.- i also have adblock, so i don't see all the ads, and apparently they've made it hard for folks to do some things if they have adblock.
