Under pressure from media companies, Google plans to start filtering videos on YouTube

In an attempt to make the search results more valuable to its users, Google implemented the duplicate content filter

I run several directories that do pretty well in google, but as of this morning I see that one of them has been de-indexed by them.

Just a few examples. They filter all the time, to meet whatever standard they choose. BTW, I got these results by entering “Google filters content” in Google! (I never use Google because of its strong left-wing bias, but decided it would be fun to see if Google would accept that phrase.

Those are some extremely weak examples. YouTube has nothing to do with Google search results, and removing duplicate search results is not the same as completely removing that result in the first place, which is what we’re talking about here.

Still, at least you did better than ranting about that goofy “miserable failure” thing.
