I'd say you are biased in that opinion.
Opening a thread on ATS, which have an embedded YT video, does'nt mean it's already a hoax. Somebody wanted to post something they don't understand,
and we try to explain and understand the video. Ruling out the video because it's YT is wrong, considering it's the fastest way to upload video from a
(smart)phone.
Btw, you can only embed YouTube and Google videos on ATS
I never said it was instantly a hoax because it's youtube ( or any video sharing site for that matter ), or that they couldn't contain legitimate UFO
videos.. I'm just saying I personally wouldn't be accepting it as evidence of UFO's when it comes from youtube, and I don't think most will ( which is
evident by the responses most of the time.. ) .. community video sites have inherent issues..
1. Anyone can upload anything
2. CG software is readily available
3. It's not difficult to produce videos .. especially videos like this one
4. There's now motive to do it because youtube pays you when your video is popular ( ad revenue sharing )
I could probably think of even more reasons not to just rush to accept it .. In order for me to accept it as the real deal, we'd probably need the
raw video footage.. un-processed.. then you KNOW it's not been tampered with.. you will never get that on youtube or google.. or any other video
sharing site... I'm not just picking on youtube... I've been around here long enough to know you can only embed those..
But beyond that... many of the videos ( most ) .. just plain look faked.. this one especially... or there exists other rational, and more plausible
explanations.
