History WebVideo / ContentCop

* AntiHero: A KnightInSourArmor variant. Ian doesn't hold back when calling out a Youtuber for their actions, but he only does this for people [[AssholeVictim who really deserve it.]] And it helps that the arguments and points he raises are usually well thought out and thoroughly researched.

* AffectionateParody: In the beginning of Content Cop - Leafy, he makes a small joke about all the Youtubers who criticized the [=YouTube=] drama incident that was caused by Leafy, which includes LetsPlay/{{PewDiePie}}, WebVideo/{{Markiplier}}, WebVideo/{{Maxmoefoe}}, etc.[[note]][=PewDiePie=], Markiplier, and Maxmoefoe have collaborated with iDubbbz in certain videos.[[/note]]

* TheCameo: Music/PostMalone cameos as a cop in "Content Deputy-AJP", and the music video for "Asian Jake Paul" features cameos from Ethan of WebVideo/H3H3Productions, WebVideo/{{Jacksfilms}}, a masked WebVideo/HowToBasic, Erik from WebVideo/InternetCommentEtiquette [[spoiler: and the man, the myth, the legend himself, LetsPlay/PewDiePie]].

''Content Cop'' is a Website/YouTube video series created by [=YouTuber=] WebVideo/IDubbbzTV that ran from 2015 to 2017. A typical episode of the series saw [=iDubbbz=] critiquing a channel or trend (usually one that was controversial at the time), both as himself and through comedic skits as the Content Cop character.

In addition to the main episodes, [=iDubbbz=] also released two videos of a subsidiary series titled ''Content Deputy'', where he addresses responses made by ''Content Cop'' subjects to the original video on them:

The series was left dormant after the last episode due to [=YouTube=] discouraging "drama" content and demonetizing or removing videos that could be considered harassment. [=iDubbbz=] later unlisted all videos in the series in May 2023 after releasing a video in which he denounced his past "edgy" content. In the video, he apologized to each creator he criticized through the series, namely Creator/TanaMongeau, for creating "hurtful and damaging content" and "cultivating a culture of apathy and cruelty", as well as his use of racial and homophobic slurs.

---> '''Ian:''' This isn't'' "Content Cop - [=PewDiePie=]"''. Wha-What's wrong with you? Yes, if I were to make a Content Cop on [=PewDiePie=], I'd mention how he [[{{Filler}} stretches all of his videos out to ten minutes]], I'd mention how he litters his videos with ads, there's things to criticize [=PewDiePie=] on, but guess what? He's not nearly as much of a fucking douchebag as you.''

-->'''Ian''': We've all made content that we're not very proud of. Maybe it was a cringey Music/GangnamStyle video from back in the day. Possibly a [[Franchise/TheSlendermanMythos Slenderman]] video that you look back and say "oooh that was pretty gay of me". Maybe [[SelfDeprecation you combined both of them]] and you did a [[https://youtu.be/HrmT3BxsBG0 cringy Slenderman Gangnam Style video.]]

--> '''Leafy''': [[MotorMouth DrivingacarMinecraftlogointhecornerhisfuckingteeeeeeeeeeth...]] nah, fuck that, I'm not going to be talking about the kid today.
-->'''[=iDubbbz=]''': NAHHHHHH, I'm not going to be talking about the kid after showing a picture of ''[picture pops up]'' his fucked-up tooth to my millions of followers. A ''zoomed-in'' picture of his snaggletooth. Yeah, I'm not gonna be talking about the kid today. I'm not gonna talk about his fucked-up teeth. His teeth? The fucked-up things in his mouth? I'm not gonna talk about that. That'd be a fucked-up for me thing to do. ''[GrossUpCloseUp of said snaggletooth]'' ''These'' things? Not gonna talk about them, not gonna talk about these nasty, fucked-up things."

--> Straight off the bat, I want all of the newcomers to my channel know that I'm perfectly fine with bullying. Make fun of someone because they're fat, autistic, or riddled with acne. I don't care, make fun of them. I think my only stipulation with the bullying is that you have to not be a ''pussy''.

** Ian attacks Tana Mongeau for telling him to kill himself for using the N-word, despite having used it herself in the past and in a much more vicious manner than Ian, and for [[PlayingTheVictimCard recording a stream of her crying at the negative comments directed at her for the inflammatory and hypocritical comments she directed at [=iDubbbz=].]]

-->'''Leafy''': Yo, is this person fucking retarded?\\
'''Ian''': [[BluntYes Yes.]]\\
'''Leafy''': Yo, is this person fucking retarded?\\
'''Ian''': Yes, she's retarded. Is that the answer you're looking for, "She's retarded"?\\
'''Leafy''': [[ImplausibleDeniability I'm not trying to be a dick, like, I really can't tell]], like I know some people are going to be like "Aw, it's obvious!", [[BlatantLies I-I honestly have no idea.]]\\
'''Ian''': Hey, Leafy! She ''is'' retarded! [[SarcasmMode Oh no, I guess]] ''[[SarcasmMode I'm]]'' [[SarcasmMode the asshole here, because you were just asking the question! I had to answer it for you! You got me. You got me good, Leafster]].\\
'''Leafy''': (video shows an image of Leafy) [[RuleOfThree Yo, is this person fucking retarded?]]\\
'''Ian''': ''Yes.''

----> '''iDubbbz:''' Wow, you guys must be great judges of character if you were surprised by Keemstar going behind your backs. [=GradeA=] and Leafy, complete fucking retards. Actual retards.

----> '''iDubbbz:''' Scarce is overweight, but more importantly than that, Scarce is [[TheBore boring]].

--> "He's a very rash decision maker, and he'll say something before he even thinks about it. He has no filter, he'll just do it, and this has resulted in countless examples of him saying ''really regrettable shit.''"

*** iDubbbz points out that WebVideo/GradeAUnderA, along with the titular Leafy, is a {{hypocrite}} for using Keemstar to boost his platform despite Keemstar's many controversies being public knowledge and only ending their friendship when the [=YouTube=] community turned on him. That being said, iDubbbz does give them both the [[PlausibleDeniability benefit of the doubt]] although this does lead iDubbbz to another conclusion...

* [[https://youtu.be/bukzXzsG77o Content Cop - Jake Paul]][[note]]Actually about a separate [=YouTuber=], [=RiceGum=]. This BaitAndSwitch actually led to the video being taken down briefly due to claims of it being misleading, though it was reinstated shortly after.[[/note]]

''Content Cop'' is a web series created by Ian Carter, better known as WebVideo/IDubbbzTV. A typical Content Cop sees Ian reviewing a channel or trend (usually a controversial one, the exceptions being his "Food Amateur Reviewers" Content Cop and his "How to Prank it Up" Content Cop) before deconstructing the channel in a hilarious fashion.

11 Content Cop videos have been released:

* [[https://youtu.be/m4XahX7cuU8 Content Cop - Leafy]] [[note]]Since taken down due to YouTube changing their policy on harassment videos.[[/note]]

* [[https://youtu.be/bukzXzsG77o Content Cop - Jake Paul]] (Actually about Ricegum)

In addition to the Content Cops, Ian has also done two Content Deputies, where he addresses the responses a subject made to the original Content Cop video on them:

The series has been left dormant since the Ricegum video, due to YouTube discouraging "drama" content and demonetizing or removing videos that can be considered harassment.

Tropes relating to [=iDubbbz=] in general and his other series can be found [[WebVideo/IDubbbzTV here.]]

!!Tropes:

* BaitAndSwitch: His ''Content Cop'' on [=RiceGum=] is billed as one on Creator/JakePaul, even featuring him in the thumbnail. He did this to avoid giving [=RiceGum=] the bragging rights he seemed to expect from being mentioned on his channel, and he considered Jake Paul an {{Acceptable Target|s}} anyway. As smart as the move was, it actually got the video briefly taken down by [=YouTube=] for violating its rules on deception.
