Tough one to call on the motives. Can only speculate from reading the mainstream media that it was something to do with YouTube's censorship policies. She could targeted her boyfriend as he works for YouTube and he didn't help her out?! Total guess on that one. If she had been reliant on the income from YouTube then this would put her in a tough position. It seems she had built up her website as well as her channels on YouTube, only for it to get dragged under her feet. She felt her next steps were the way it went. We definitely do not condoning her actions at all. Unfortunately, this is the power of social media: its influences and its consequences. Give too much power to the users get incidents like the Facebook Live shooting (a year or two ago) and give too much power to the corporations and end up with what we have now. We'll see how this plays out in the future. Will YouTube act on changing their policies again or just keep everything the same and change their security protocol?
