The survey of YouTube.

We are CESL student of Southern Illinois University Carbondale. In our NewsTalk class, we study about the issue of news and we decided to do a survey of YouTube. And in my group, we were studying about the Control of YouTube. We wanted to know about the idea of controling for people. Also, we wanted to know about if American government block, what people would and whether the government should be able to block websites and language. We were interested in whether YouTube itself should control film clips. I handed out 13 surveys on my domitory and cafeterria. I got 13 surveys and people were recieved our survey and they answered the questions seriously. They said to me about YouTube that it was so good site for everyone because it was so funny and for free but also it had some plobrems about control and privacy. However, some people didn't know about YouTube, so I was very surprised.

According to this survey, most of people (Male 96%, Female 74%) have ever heard of YouTube, especially young people (18-22years old, 92%) know about it a lot. But a lot of people (Male 70%, Female 81%) have not ever made a clip and put it on YouTube, so they just enjoyed to watch some movie clips. And also many people (Male 95%, Female 80%) believe that sites like YouTubes should not be illegal. I am interested in the question whether the government should be able to block websites.
186 people think about the goverment can not block websites because people try to find another site. And there is a limit to control because of privacy. So, people think about control is so difficult because Internet have already spread.

In my opinion, YouTube is good site for most people because they can get fun but there is so stupid movie clips like predudice and sexual harrasment or violence. So we must pay attention to watch YouTube. I found that people are interested in free movie clips according to survey, so they don't want to pay money to watch it. I think this is good advantege of YouTube. However, the government should make some rules to protect privacy and to control some bad sites. Especially people think about privacy a lot. And males are interested in YouTube than females. So, I felt males' opinion are stronger than females'one. And I was surprised at a lot of young people use Internet a lot and they try to protect YouTube because they want to watch YouTube for free to get fun. Finally, I think this survey included a lot of questions so, I felt this was too much. Some people didn't want to answer because of amount of questions. I think the next survey had better make not too much questions.
