I have nearly a quarter century of online selling with additional years of warehousing experience.
I am seeing a huge number of YouTubers providing completely false information about online selling on sites such as eBay. This is usually being done to convince people they are a expert in the field so that they can sell them things and / or earn commissions from affiliate links. Some are doing it because they don't know any better.
When you make a comment on their their video about how their claim can't be true and then provide the proof they hide your comments from other viewers or threaten you. In a recent video a guy made the claim twice that he had a 386% sell through rate. LOL, 100% is the most you could hope for if you understand elementary school level math.
I'd like to review these YouTube videos on my own blog or site offering proof that questions the claims made. I don't to to embed the video in my site. I would like to create screenshots from each video, preferably with the closed text showing the false information in place, and display these screenshot on my site with my response. I could also just post just one screenshot of the start of the video and simply quote portions of the video transcript.
I would download a copy of each video for my own protection should the author later try to delete it and claim I made it all up. I'd add a standard disclosure about fair use and so forth.
