ATTENTION: Al Unlisted Videos and Playlists on YouTube From Before January1,2017 TO Automatically Become Private on Friday, July 23,2021 You Tube Hi Your Unlisted videos uploaded before January 1, 2017 will be made Private starting July 23, 2021. To see the videos affected by this change, click here from a computer. For information on how this will affect your channel, keep reading or visit the Help Center. If you need help, please contact us. Why the change In 2017, we rolled out an update to the system that generates new YouTube Unlisted links, which included security enhancements that make the links for your Unlisted videos even harder for someone to discover without you sharing with them. We're now making changes to older Unlisted videos that were uploaded before this update took place. What you can do You have the following options for your legacy videos: • Do nothing. We'll set any affected videos to Private starting July 23, 2021. Private videos can only be seen by you and the people you choose. Note that once these videos are made Private starting July 23, any link previously used to embed or share them as Unlisted will no longer work. • Opt out of this change. Fill out this form by July 23, 2021 to keep your legacy videos in their current Unlisted state. If you treat your Unlisted videos like Public videos (e.g. they're embedded on third party sites or shared on social media), we recommend you opt out of this change. If you choose to opt out, your legacy links will continue working as they do today but they won't get the benefit of this security update. • Make your Unlisted video Public. Alternatively, you can make the video Public to make it publicly accessible. Your video will be visible to anyone using YouTube and will show up in search results, recommended videos and related video lists. • Reupload as a new Unlisted video: If you want to keep your videos Unlisted and benefit from this security update, you'll need to download them and re-upload them as Unlisted under the new system. However, data associated with the original upload, like views or comments, won't transfer. Any embedded videos using the old link would also need to be updated to the new video URL. Learn more. We understand that this change may be challenging, so we're giving you time to make adjustments to your videos before this change takes effect on July 23, 2021. Thanks, The YouTube Team

Notes

On Friday, July 23, 2021, all Unlisted Videos and Unlisted Playlists which were uploaded or created before January 1, 2017, will automatically become Private, thus they will no longer be publicly accessible (whether you have an account on YouTube or not).

Channels have until July 23 to opt-out their content from this change, but it would be a prudent measure to act now under the assumption that your favorite channels will not opt-out (regardless of whether said channels are long dead, or still uploading new content). So get youtube-dl or something and go to town!!

Anyone may share and distribute this image as they see fit!

If you didn't get this message in time, in all fairness, YouTube only gave the Internet 1 month advanced notice and failed to conspicuously advertise this change, so I don't blame you. I only heard about it yesterday, and I'm furious.

See this forum thread I created for more information and links.
