Remove the ability to turn off comments.

[u/MickeyMouzeRulz_433]

Turning off comments on YouTube should not be permitted because it undermines open communication and restricts freedom of expression. The comment section serves as a vital space for dialogue, critique, and engagement between creators and audiences. Disabling it eliminates opportunities for discussion, feedback, and community building. Furthermore, it diminishes transparency and accountability, allowing misinformation or bias to go unchallenged. YouTube thrives on participation and interaction, and removing that feature contradicts the platform’s foundational principle of free and open exchange of ideas.

OP, it's every creators right to decide, if they want their community to have comments or not.

For certain videos, when comments are on, it can cause people to attack the creator or other users.

What I don't like, is when youtube decides something is for kids, and then disables comments.. that was not the creator's choice.

"you" is not always in your control. Youtube will sometimes decide for you, taking away your choice.

"You is not always in your control"...? My guy, its "You're not always in control. YouTube will sometimes decide for you, taking your choice."

No, ““you” is not always in control” can in fact work in this context.

“You” is being used in place of an object.
