Can't wait for everyone to ignore the fact that this is nothing compared to the BILLION that was taken from Justin and Rihanna's labels. And Britney, she lost nearly all of her views.
They're doing this to remove fraudulent views. YouTube changed their algorithm and nearly every big name artist and YouTuber is losing millions. They should have had a better safeguard set up to begin with.
Note that fraudulent views don't always mean people or artists are buying views. Big names often times attract spam bots and those spam bots are counted as views a lot of the time. 170m is nothing and pretty typical for someone with a 500,000,000+ viewed video.
damn some people really wanted her to have the most views again huh...I wonder how many justin will lose since that's how I heard he got that many for baby anyways.
Oh here's the explanation next to the negative number.
Quote:
Negative numbers occur when YouTube audits the view counts. There is not a problem at SocialBlade, it just means YouTube looked at your views and decided they made a mistake, or decided to change what counts as a view and the negative number is how this is displayed when they roll the counter back. If you ever noticed when videos get to about 300 views YouTube locks the view count. This is the beginning of their audit system. The same thing happens on a grander scale for your total video views which is why you sometimes don't see an update in your view count for the day, or again why it sometimes gets rolled back showing you a negative number. Update: As of December 2012 it appears YouTube decided that if you delete a video you lose the views that were on there so many channels lost a large number of views.
