YouTube has been in a lot of hot water recently and it looks like things are only getting worse now that one of their biggest content creators is calling it quits.

Life with MaK has been at the top of the ASMR game ever since she joined the platform back in 2017. Now that she has over 1.5 million followers, she is planning to stop making videos after some of her stuff has been taken down for "inappropriate content."

Life with MaK, or Makenna Kelly, has revealed that a bunch of her videos have been taken down recently. On Twitter, she opened up about one of the now deleted videos, which was a clothing haul.

Other videos that have been removed include "What I REALLY Do With my YouTube Money" and a video that featured her doing ASMR while eating sticky foods. According to Makenna, the videos have been labeled "inappropriate" for "sexual content." She wrote on her Twitter that her sticky food videos in particular were taken down because, "some adults may have a fetish," however, many other underage creators have not had their videos taken down.

Mackenna, who is 13-years-old, has also fired back against the social media platform for disabling the comments on her account (which is in affect for all accounts featuring minors) and for not going against people who have previously sexualized her on the platform first.

Dear @YouTube: Your blatant discrimination will not stop me. I will not let you use me as a target for your platform’s shortcomings. I am not sorry for being a confident young woman who speaks her mind. You condoned a grown man to sexually bully me and it’s time to own up to it. pic.twitter.com/VvcsNihbfV — Life With MaK (Makenna Kelly) (@lifewithmak2005) June 10, 2019

She has also called out a number of underage creators who have been doing things that can also be considered "sexual content" including Danielle Cohen and Bahd Bhabie.

After another video was taken down, Mackenna announced that she was planning to move to a different platform to continue to post her videos without having them taken down.

This is not the only controversy that YouTube has been experiencing over the past couple of weeks. Many people have been openly going against the social media platform's harassment policy, which they say is not protecting some groups of people, particularly the LGBTQ community.



The platform responded to TV host, Carlos Maza, who recently reported YouTuber Steven Crowder for attacking Carlos over being a gay Latino.

The company said that after an investigation, they still found Crowder's videos within the platform's policies and had no plans to take them down.

(3/4) As an open platform, it’s crucial for us to allow everyone–from creators to journalists to late-night TV hosts–to express their opinions w/in the scope of our policies. Opinions can be deeply offensive, but if they don’t violate our policies, they’ll remain on our site. — TeamYouTube (@TeamYouTube) June 4, 2019

Many people have said that this would just encourage more homophobic and racist comments to continue to be made on the site.

Spare us the rainbow logo on your main account when you treat homophobia as an "opinion". By allowing this kind of content on your platform you're endorsing hate, @scrowder account should be deleted @YouTube — André Falanghe (@ActuallyItsAndy) June 9, 2019

Homophobia and harassment are not "viewpoints" or "opinions." Shame on @YouTube — Fadil Aliriza (@FadilAliriza) June 7, 2019
