[[https://www.youtube.com YouTube]] is a video sharing site that has achieved worldwide popularity since it launched in 2005.

It was founded by programming students Chad Hurley, Steve Chen, and Jawed Karim; the idea came to Karim when he had trouble finding clips of two major events in early 2004: The South Asian tsunami and later Music/JanetJackson's WardrobeMalfunction at that year's UsefulNotes/SuperBowl halftime show.

** Similarly , the Adpocalypse of 2018 led to Youtube trying to promote themselves as "Family friendly" in order to get Advertisers to return and adult only content to be ad unfriendly....only for it to be revealed they were violating COPPA as a result, leading to an increase in adult only content in return.
