In May, Maryland residents Mike and Heather Martin temporarily had two of their children taken away by child protective services as a result of a video they made depicting their children crying, in what some have said was a sick stunt. The parents, who run a YouTube channel called DaddyOFive, seemed shocked when their children were removed from the home, but critics contend they abuse their children.
Unfortunately, children being depicted as unwilling participants in controversial videos has spurned a debate over what is appropriate for children, what may have been created for pedophiles, and what parents need to know. Thanks to comedian Daniel Tosh, this disturbing world of YouTube child exploitation is getting some much-needed coverage.
Home movies have been around as long as video cameras. But with the rise of child pornography, the proliferation of pedophiles and the accompanying technology, a renewed vigilance to protect the innocence of our nation's youth is needed.
Not only did Tosh expose this darkness, but in a recent publication by Vigilant Citizen, a disturbing discovery was made about online videos, principally located on YouTube, which depict real children in bizarre and unnatural situations. Here's what they found.
Children with access to YouTube can be tricked into watching videos featuring their favorite Disney characters such as Mickey Mouse. Here's Mickey getting his ears cut off by scissors.
Here's Elsa from the movie "Frozen" showing her having sex with Spider-Man.
Here's another featuring the same two characters.
Then there's the videos which play upon some children's worst fears.
Here are two infants with fake cockroaches on their faces.
This one shows a giant tarantula crawling on a toddler in a onesie.
But what might be the most disturbing of the videos we uncovered was revealed to us, ironically, by Daniel Tosh. The outspoken comedian and purveyor of controversial videos and off-color topics, was seemingly disturbed by what he learned.
"I'll level with you. I may have stumbled upon something dark here," Tosh said.
"Anyone watching these videos needs to put some pants on and turn themselves into the FBI."
He told his viewers that the children, who star in a YouTube channel called Seven Super Girls, may be unaware of how they're being marketed, and to which specific audience. Tosh staged a "To Catch a Predator" style spoof on the type of viewers who were watching the seven girls' videos. You guessed it....pedophiles. Unfortunately, their videos are extremely popular and serve as an indictment to the world's pedophilic attractions.
The channel has nearly 3,000 videos uploaded. But this is no ordinary children's show, and without a doubt, 1980's era censors would have driven themselves mad in an attempt to shut down the perversion.
At first glance, the Seven Super Girls YouTube homepage, arguably, looks like one's favorite porn site. Each under-18 girl has her own subchannel. To the unwitting, however, the site may look like girls dressed like girls, engaging in activities which girls enjoy -- going to camp, hanging with friends by the pool, and playing dress up.
But to a pedophile, the site is a smorgasbord of smut, carefully crafted to serve as eye candy for adults and teenagers to indulge in their child-sex fantasies. After we clicked on the entire list of videos and selected to sort by most popular, it became clear to us at The Free Thought Project, the videos are in no way innocent.
The first video titled "Lucy's Morning Routine" shows a young girl licking a cream pie. The video has 138 million views, yet never rises above the level of a bad Pee Wee Herman episode. Why so many views? Tosh believes it's simply a visual feast for pedophiles.
The second video is labeled "Escaping from Your Bed In The Morning!!" and features a young child immobilized on a bed with duct tape. What might be an interesting video to children is certainly a child bondage video for predators, who gorge on the fantasies elicited from the viewing.
Our investigation into the Seven Super Girls channel uncovered an incredibly disturbing phenomenon. The girls are all selected as stars of the channel by uploading an audition video to SAKs channels, pronounced "Sax" and eerily close to "Sex" — we believe on purpose. You decide for yourself. When you click on the link to the YouTube video, the official SAKs channels are listed in the comments section.
The video even warns to be wary of fake Seven Super Girls channels. Do you have any idea why? Because pedophiles set up their own fake audition sites so that they can have access to the personal information of children and teens they would choose to exploit. There's no way uploading a video of one's child to any of the SAKs sites is an exercise in good parenting.
It's highly probable that the children, teens, and adults who are creating and uploading the videos have no idea, or don't care, that pedophiles are gorging on their videos. All of which makes the seriousness of the proliferation and views of the videos that much more disturbing. How can parents, teens, and children resist the temptation to be internet famous? After all, if the Jenner girls are all doing it, why shouldn't they? That's a fair question.
The Seven Super Girls channel has nearly 7 million subscribers, and their videos have been viewed 7.4 billion times. The information under the "about" tab shows a business email for the site to be [email protected]. Notice the word "enquiries" is written in British English, not the American English spelling of "Inquiries".
The New York Times wrote the following about the SAKs channels;
The SAKs channels, as they are known, were started in 2008 by seven families in Britain who, in the early days of YouTube, wanted to make sure their children were making family-appropriate content. The only remaining parent of that original partnership is Ian Rylett, who is currently in charge of the SAKs operation.It's safe to say that the family-appropriate content has taken a backseat to pedophile appealing content. Other than the New York Times article, little is known about Mr. Rylett who runs the SAKs corporation, which employs a staff of six.
Mr. Rylett, who lives in Leeds, said producing the channels was essentially his full-time job. He and a team of six others take care of copyright issues, create sponsorship deals, come up with weekly themes, monitor the channels and arrange meet and greets. The tickets for a 1,000-seat event that is coming up in Orlando, Fla., are selling for $30 each.We want our readers to think for themselves. If you're a parent or are thinking about being one, and want to protect your children from pedophiles, by all means, visit the Seven Super Girls YouTube channel. Decide for yourself if Mr. Rylett and his team are doing a good job of monitoring the content of the children's videos to prevent the site from becoming food for famished pedophiles.
As The Free Thought Project has reported on many occasions, a vast pedophile network exists in the U.K., which has even incriminated former UK Prime Minister, Sir Edward Heath.
Ugh. Glad Tosh is getting some exposure on this.
This one was horrible.
Steem on
Thrilling?
Oops ! my mistake
I know very well that youtube us just a very dark place where everyone wants to earn money
God bless you
It happens !
How does this stuff even end up on youtube man.. It's extremely case sensitive to be seen on the web let alone being added through the YouTube check.
Honestly peoples like this are extremely damaging towards society..
And this makes a lot of negative rep for YouTube.
I was just going to post about this, and wanted to make sure it was covered! Glad to see you guys here! You are one of my favorite news outlets! Thanks so much. Restemed
youtube is very dark place
a lot of people just want to have a lot of views to get youtube money...
they will do anything to get views...
This Banner is Clickable :)
Man, what's this?
Well the damage is pretty damaging
That is creepy!
That is shocking, great blog by the way! Check out my new post @the.dajboz follow me! :)
I FUCKING KNEW IT. theres a bunch of channels on youtube like this...like those toy channels, its so messed up. i knew it was clearly fetish of the pedophilia nature.... im glad tosh is bringing actual attention to this stuff
It isn't though, try being around normal people who have kids.
I am, I babysit for many families. Guess what? All of the parents throw youtube-kids at them, which is what all those toy videos and the seven(X(X(X()X(W)C(ihfeuwhwijhgkw stuff gets showed on.
It has nothing to do with pedophilia, and certainly not some weird fetish therein.
oh it does tho. the beauty of it [for pedophiles] is that it is multi use. children also enjoy it for different reasons. and it IS portrayed as a children's show and seems really stupid so adults won't give it a careful look over...
but its very clear its fetish pedophilia.
as someone who works in the fetish industry..absolutely. so many of those toy channels are obviously fetish. the attention to specific details the scenarios the recurrent themes of eating or sleepovers or bondage or toilet training...its really well done but to me the undertone is very fetish.
And just because the parents AND the children are unaware of the other audience of these shows...they're still there. and its catered quite a bit TO them and the concept that those kids are ALSO watching what they are watching as well [its like pedoception]..... ><
shudder
I-I think you're looking too far into it mate.
From what I've seen they always do the exact same on the toy videos and the like because there's nothing else to really do, so they just repeat what they're doing.
What do you mean specifically though? Maybe I'd understand if you explained more.
I made a comment replying to the main post here that you might find interesting...and probably highly distrubing, but hey, that's how I do it: censor nothing.
From what I've talked about with that person, and others I know/have known, there aren't really any fetishes that pedophiles have. My theory on why is because they aren't saturated with weird sexual things and kids are ESPECIALLY not into weird shit, and thus it doesn't really develop in them.
The closest you might get is something like the toilet training bit, but with actual kids, and them having some (hands you some shutters) f-f-fantasies regarding it. But sleepovers and bondage is just silly fun or casual play as who doesn't like a good sleepover and light bondage is part of many games and encourages sillyness.
Anyhow, I'd definitely say parents know when they're producing videos for people to probably masturbate to, such as the following video creator...
They know, they just don't care. Well, they used to make videos for pedos and pond-scum, or so it seemed in my opinion, but looking again it seems like they've, after getting popularity because of the pedos & pondscum, started producing actual childrens videos.
At first they did toys videos, then they made the video above, boom tons of hits, then they tried a few others, nothing, then they put out like 3-4bath videos, slowed down, did a couple more it looks like, and now they're swimming in cash.
No more bath videos for almost a year it looks like. I WONDER WHY
That's a lot of views....
Thank you for your integrity and covering difficult topics for people to realize.
It's a sick world! Thanks for the post and followed.
Thank you for taking the time to write such a well-sourced post on this. I'm glad to hear that this is starting to go mainstream with people like Daniel Tosh, but really this is just the tip of the iceberg. The people on /x/ and /pol/ have been digging into this for weeks, and it appears that there is an entire network of people that leave caeser cypher comments on these strange videos, and their channels usually include an recent, short, eerie video of a child feigning happiness or enjoyment.
Luckily, Youtube specifically addressed these videos in a recent announcement about new guidelines, which said those type of videos are no longer eligible for monetization. But the chorus of odd comments that pours onto these videos makes me think there could be something more sinister lurking underground, and I guess the loss of monetization will give us a clue if and when content/comment/view frequency changes.
Hilarious stuff mate, I may begin following you just for this kind of comedy.
Like you can't make this shit up, or, well, you do, but hey it's hilarious because I know it's completely false.
I just sent this post to a pedo friend of mine and asked him and he responded with essentially "lmao no, those videos are watched by kids on youtube kids mostly, although some of the videos are cute"
He also said that comment about bondage that I mentioned above is hilarious as at best it'd be silly to them. They aren't really into bondage stuff mate.
That's a link he sent me in response, saying that's more of the material a pedo would watch, although not particularly to masturbate. For him, and others, he says it simply makes him smile and happy because there are cute kids being silly. However the "degenerate bottom-feeders" (his way of saying people who aren't pedophiles but want to fuck everything) make rude/lewd comments on those videos, and they usually defend the girls telling them to piss off.
He also sent me two other videos, but they have a girl who's topless getting massaged, and a video of a toddler being changed on youtube with 2,000,000+ views. Funny thing, that last one where "it's all" visible is from Kansas child care something something. Heh.
Anyhow, he said you people are crazies (like I knew) and that if you're going to masturbate to kids on youtube there are far better choices (like the above last two).
Sure is nice not being a mindless bigot and having a good friend to enlighten me on the truth, and teach me how to truly protect the kids I love, including the ones I babysit, rather than misinforming me and creating panic.
