Content Cop is a YouTube video series created by YouTuber 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.11 Content Cop videos were released: Content Cop - Busting JINX RELOAD Content Cop - AMATEUR FOOD REVIEWERS Content Cop - TOY REVIEW CHANNELS (GIANT SURPRISE EGG) Content Cop - Fine Bros and the REVENUE MACHINE Content Cop - KEEMSTAR Content Cop - Toy Channels #2 (GIANT GUMMY BOTTLE) Content Cop - HOWTOPRANKITUP Content Cop - Leafy note Was taken down in late 2019 due to YouTube changing their policy on harassment videos. Content Cop - Tech Destruction Channels Content Cop - Tana Mongeau Content Cop - Jake Paul note Actually about a separate YouTuber, RiceGum. This Bait-and-Switch actually led to the video being taken down shortly after release due to claims of it being misleading, though it was reinstated not long after that. This episode was also eventually taken down.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: Content Cop - Leafy Response Content Deputy - AJPThe 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 Tana Mongeau, for creating "hurtful and damaging content" and "cultivating a culture of apathy and cruelty", as well as his use of racial and homophobic slurs. | |

| Content Cop (Web Video) / int_1235f055 | comment |
Dirty Coward: This is Ian's biggest problem with Leafy. He demonstrates that Leafy regularly directs vicious insults at channels too small to make a real retaliation, playing it off as praeteritio or feigning ignorance, only to whine about drama or people talking behind his back when insults of the same variety are hurled his way. As Ian puts it: | |

Clickbait Gag | |
| Content Cop (Web Video) / int_1d53cca0 | comment |
Clickbait Gag: Invoked with "Content Cop - Jake Paul", which even features Paul's face in the thumbnail but instead focuses on RiceGum, as Ian refused to give Rice the satisfaction of being used for views. This ploy briefly got the video taken down by YouTube shortly after its upload on grounds of "misdirection", but it was reinstated after vocal outcry from Ian and his fans. | |

Batman Gambit | |
| Content Cop (Web Video) / int_38d02d44 | comment |
Batman Gambit: What makes a Content Cop so devastating is Ian's ability to know exactly how his subjects will respond. This is perhaps best shown in the Content Deputy videos, which is essentially Ian sitting back and enjoying Leafy and RiceGum displaying the exact character flaws he criticized them for in their attempts to save face. | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech | |
| Content Cop (Web Video) / int_7d89315b | comment |
"The Reason You Suck" Speech: Rather, a "The Reason You and Your Channel Suck" speech. Content Cop is essentially a 10 to 20 minutes long version of this, but special mention goes to his videos on Keemstar and LeafyIsHere, who had their channels and reputation systematically dismantled. | |

Bait-and-Switch | |
| Content Cop (Web Video) / int_8797239c | comment |
Bait-and-Switch: His Content Cop on RiceGum is billed as one on Jake Paul, 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 fair game anyway. As smart as the move was, it actually got the video briefly taken down by YouTube for violating its rules on deception. | |

Beat Them at Their Own Game | |
| Content Cop (Web Video) / int_8a6d2168 | comment |
Beat Them at Their Own Game: In Content Cop, iDubbbz will often imitate his targets' behavior to make fun of their video content or to prove a point. iDubbbz mocks Jinx while reacting to Jinx's videos. In Content Cop - AMATEUR FOOD REVIEWERS, iDubbbz does a crude parody of a typical food review. Likewise, iDubbbz does a parody toy unboxing in Content Cop - TOY REVIEW CHANNELS (GIANT SURPRISE EGG). Given how Keemstar was willing to reveal private Twitter conversations on his channel as news, iDubbbz decides to reveal a private Twitter conversation between Keemstar and him in which Keemstar threatens to ruin iDubbbz's career. Content Cop - TOY CHANNELS #2 (GIANT GUMMY BOTTLE) has iDubbbz teaching his audience how to create a gummy bottle made out of bleach. In the same vein as HOWTOPRANKITUP, iDubbbz makes his own set of impractical pranks. The Content Cop on Leafy criticizes Leafy's character but focuses mainly on insulting Leafy's appearance, most notoriously his chin, which is fitting since most of Leafy's content revolves around attacking other people's appearances. In Content Cop - Tech Destruction Channels, iDubbbz destroys some Amazon Dash Buttons with a blender, whacks his drone with a shovel, and drops valuable items off a building, the latter of which ends with the building's securities forcing him to clean up the mess. Knowing RiceGum was likely to release a diss track in response to the Content Cop on him, Ian beat him to the punch by releasing his own diss track, "Asian Jake Paul". | |

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 recording a stream of her crying at the negative comments directed at her for the inflammatory and hypocritical comments she directed at iDubbbz. | |

Take That! | |
| Content Cop (Web Video) / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: Content Cop tends to be this for the people iDubbbz criticizes, but he does throw in some pot shots at certain other Youtubers. Including himself. Content Cop - TOY REVIEW CHANNELS (GIANT SURPRISE EGG) In the toy box, iDubbbz finds a toy gun dubbed "Sam Pepper's Kill Your Best Friend Prank Gun". Content Cop - KEEMSTAR When recounting the Keemstar incident involving Pyrocynical, he describes Pyrocynical as someone who "sucked Keemstar's dick half the time". Content Cop - Leafy iDubbbz points out that 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 benefit of the doubt although this does lead iDubbbz to another conclusion... Then, he mocks Scarce by telling his audience to only subscribe to Scarce "when Scarce's content gets better". Content Cop - Jake Paul He calls Jake Paul an "obnoxious, arrogant asshole" before mentioning that RiceGum is an obnoxious, arrogant asshole as well. | |

Anti-Hero | |
| Content Cop (Web Video) / int_beb9a361 | comment |
Anti-Hero: A Knight in Sour Armor variant. Ian doesn't hold back when calling out a Youtuber for their actions, but he only does this for people who really deserve it. And it helps that the arguments and points he raises are usually well thought out and thoroughly researched. Case and point: In the Content Deputy video on Ricegum, he gets to the part where Ricegum tries to deflect criticism from himself by saying PewDiePie does the same thing he did, only for Ian to bluntly tell him this is irrelevant because the video isn't on Felix. | |

Irony: Ian devotes a good chunk of the Jinx Content Cop to pointing out that Jinx, who has made a career out of Stealing the Credit from other creators by reacting to their videos, puts watermarks on the few original videos of his, something done to make sure copyrighted material can't be infringed on. | |

Self-Deprecation | |
| Content Cop (Web Video) / int_c9597a03 | comment |
Self-Deprecation: While he often takes shots at himself, he also ends up deconstructing this in his Content Cop episodes on Leafy and Ricegum. Both responded or called out to Ian with a variety of jokes at their own expense. However, Ian points out how their jokes fail to actually address their flaws or end up feeling shallow. When Ian compares Leafy to a Dr. Seuss character, Leafy attempts to go with the joke by listing other cartoon characters Ian could have insultingly compared him to. Ian rebuts this by noticing that all the characters Leafy mentioned are fairly attractive. | |

Hypocrite | |
| Content Cop (Web Video) / int_d52d28b6 | comment |
Hypocrite: most of the Content Cops rip on hypocrisy on the subject's parts. In "Busting Jinx Reload," Ian riffs on Jinx's watermarking his original videos so they cannot be reacted to, despite being a reaction channel. Keemstar's Content Cop points out his lashing out at Pyrocynical's light criticism of him, despite having made a career out of making much harsher criticism; claiming to not use Drama Alert's influence to bully, before subsequently threatening to reveal information solely to direct the Internet mob's vitriol at people who anger him. Leafy is criticized for making attacks on people's appearances, despite clearly being insecure about his chin; 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; and whining about drama whenever being called out for bullying, despite having made a career out of insulting other YouTubers. 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 recording a stream of her crying at the negative comments directed at her for the inflammatory and hypocritical comments she directed at iDubbbz. | |
