The legal deposit of the audiovisual web is the part of the legal deposit which the legislator has entrusted to the National Audiovisual Institute (Law No 2006-961 of 1 August 2006 on copyright and related rights in the information society, known as the “DADVSI Law”). It started in February 2009 with the collection of websites (audiovisual media services and online public communication services) and since 2014 includes social networks (including Twitter accounts) linked to French audiovisual.

As part of the creation of audiovisual thematic corpuses by Ina documentalists, a study on the online presence of reality TV shows was conducted between November 2020 and January 2021.

For each identified reality show as well as for its participants and production companies, social media accounts, Youtube channels, Wikipedia pages, websites and hashtags have been identified.

The dataset contains the completeness of these web objects and when available, documentary information and metrics (number of subscribers, number of subscriptions, etc.) as of January 2021. All the publications, videos associated with these accounts and the websites can only be consulted in the hands of the INA, the custodian of this legal deposit.

The dataset is divided into 4 data sub-games: — “Depot_legal_du_web-_telealité-_emissions.csv” contains all web objects by reality show — “Depot_legal_du_web-_teleality-_participant.e.s.csv” contains all the web objects per participant — “Depot_legal_du_web-_teleality-_production.csv” contains all web objects per production company — “Depot_legal_du_web-_teleality-_dones_documentaires.csv” contains all documentary data and metrics by web objects — “Depot_legal_du_web-_teleality-_dones_documentary_dictionnaire.csv” contains a dictionary of the previous file.

The re-use of personal data present in the data sets published by Ina constitutes the processing of personal data as defined by Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 known as the General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”) and Law No 78-17 of 6 January 1978 on computing, files and freedoms as amended, together ‘the Data Protection Regulation’. The re-user is therefore subject to compliance with the legal framework resulting from the Data Protection Regulation in order to ensure that such re-use of personal data is lawful. In any event, Ina disclaims any liability for non-compliance by a re-user with the above-mentioned rules.

Update — December 7, 2014. – Evidence-based medicine (EBM) is not working for many reasons, for example: 1. Incorrect in their foundations (paradox): hierarchical levels of evidence are supported by opinions (i.e., lowest strength of evidence according to EBM) instead of real data collected from different types of study designs (i.e., evidence). http://dx.doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.1122534 2. The effect of criminal practices by pharmaceutical companies is only possible because of the complicity of others: healthcare systems, professional associations, governmental and academic institutions. Pharmaceutical companies also corrupt at the personal level, politicians and political parties are on their payroll, medical professionals seduced by different types of gifts in exchange of prescriptions (i.e., bribery) which very likely results in patients not receiving the proper treatment for their disease, many times there is no such thing: healthy persons not needing pharmacological treatments of any kind are constantly misdiagnosed and treated with unnecessary drugs. Some medical professionals are converted in K.O.L. which is only a puppet appearing on stage to spread lies to their peers, a person supposedly trained to improve the well-being of others, now deceits on behalf of pharmaceutical companies. Probably the saddest thing is that many honest doctors are being misled by these lies created by the rules of pharmaceutical marketing instead of scientific, medical, and ethical principles. Interpretation of EBM in this context was not anticipated by their creators. “The main reason we take so many drugs is that drug companies don’t sell drugs, they sell lies about drugs.” ―Peter C. Gøtzsche “doctors and their organisations should recognise that it is unethical to receive money that has been earned in part through crimes that have harmed those people whose interests doctors are expected to take care of. Many crimes would be impossible to carry out if doctors weren’t willing to participate in them.” —Peter C Gøtzsche, The BMJ, 2012, Big pharma often commits corporate crime, and this must be stopped. Pending (Colombia): Health Promoter Entities (In Spanish: EPS ―Empresas Promotoras de Salud). 3. Misinterpretations New technologies or concepts are difficult to understand in the beginning, it doesn’t matter their simplicity, we need to get used to new tools aimed to improve our professional practice. Probably the best explanation is here in these videos (credits to Antonio Villafaina for sharing these videos with me).

Before rejecting the null hypothesis I would like to ask the following open question:
Could you support with data that hierarchical levels of evidence based medicine are correct? (1,2) Additional explanation to this question: – Only respond to this question attaching publicly available raw data.
– Be aware that more than a question this is a challenge: I have data (i.e., evidence) which is contrary to classic (i.e., McMaster) or current (i.e., Oxford) hierarchical levels of evidence based medicine. An important part of this data (but not all) is publicly available. References 1. Ramirez, Jorge H (2014): The EBM challenge. figshare. http://dx.doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.1135873 2.

YouTube Partner Program In the first quarter of 2024, YouTube’s ad revenue amounted to over eight billion U.S. dollars. Through its Partner Program, YouTube also rewards uploaders of popular videos with a share of the advertising revenues the content generates. This, paired with the fact that many users of the video sharing platform tend to have favorite channels that they revisit regularly, has given rise to another phenomenon: YouTube celebrities. Although some of these well-known figures were discovered on the website but then carved a successful career outside of YouTube, for many others the site is their primary platform for delivering content and staying in contact with fans, all while signing lucrative deals or promotional partnerships. Highest earning YouTubers In November 2022, MrBeast surpassed long-standing most subscribed YouTuber PewDiePie, having reached approximately 112 million subscribers.

The ranking also included social media personality Jake Paul and Mark Fischbach, as well as Ryan Kaji from Ryan's World (formerly known as ToysReview), who started his YouTube career reviewing toys at three years old.
