If you upload a video and set it to public, you're responsible for that. End of story.

It is not the responsibility of others to guess your intentions.

> and set it to public

That's the issue. These people likely didn't affirmatively do that.

  • IIRC at least for a while it defaulted to unlisted and then at some point YouTube changed all unlisted videos to private which removed a lot of videos from view where the original uploader was no longer around to set the video to public.
