YouTube is beginning to punish Logan Paul in the wake of controversy.

The company announced today that it will not move forward with a planned YouTube Red movie that Paul was supposed to star in at this time as the project is on hold. The Thinning: New World Order was supposed to be the sequel to Paul’s 2016 YouTube Red movie, The Thinning. A YouTube representative also confirmed to Polygon he is removed from Google’s top tier preferred ad program.

“In light of recent events, we have decided to remove Logan Paul’s channels from Google Preferred,” a YouTube representative said. Additionally, we will not feature Logan in season 4 of ‘Foursome’ and his new Originals are on hold.

I have no clue who he is. Are you reading reddit and starting threads again?

Should I be triggered?

If you have a child age 7-13 they have probably already been indoctrinated into his cult of idiocy.

Eta: since many of you appear to actually not know. He is a YouTube star very popular with kids. He does stunts, pranks and other types of tomfoolery. Recently he made headlines by going to Japan's infamous 'suicide forest' and posting a video of a person who had hanged himself.

I watched a compilation type video of him in Japan. He's an unfunny, disrespectful tool.

He's the equivalent of the Kardashians for YouTube. Most of them are.

They make a ton of money though, so congrats.

The average CPM is for every 1 million views, they take home (their cut) 2k.

I think this guy averages 6 million views a video. He posts one every day.

I got kids in that range and they do not know who he is.

I will consider this a parenting win and I am better at my job than the losers here.
