YouTube is finally starting to take appropriate action against Logan Paul following his string of offensive vlogs that have caused outrage online.
After taking a break from vlogging following the backlash he received as a result of the suicide vid, Paul returned to his channel last week with a video where he tasered dead rats and removed fish from his coy pond so they couldn’t breathe.
Now, Youtube has released a statement revealing that they are taking a stand against the internet personality.
“After careful consideration, we have decided to temporarily suspend ads on Logan Paul’s YouTube channels,” the website wrote in a statement to Us Weekly.
“This is not a decision we made lightly; however, we believe he has exhibited a pattern of behaviour in his videos that makes his channel not only unsuitable for advertisers, but also potentially damaging to the broader creator community.”
YouTube pulled Logan’s channels from its Google Preferred advertising service in January at which time he took a three-week break from the website before returning on January 24 with a video about suicide awareness.
In the video, he claimed that he will donate $1 million to “various suicide prevention organisations, with the first $250,000 going immediately to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline so they can increase their capacity to help those in need.”
He also claimed that he will “think twice in the future about what I post,” but based on his newest vid, this was obviously a lie.
