Samay Raina recently shared a rant on Instagram. The comedian's latest episode on India's Got Latent Season 2 broke records, becoming the most-watched episode of the season with over 53 million views. Now, Samay has complained about YouTube's new update, under which even clicking on a video would count as a view.
'Even a click gets you one view'
Samay shared a video explaining why he became suspicious after his latest episode quickly gained a large number of views but did not receive a similar number of likes on YouTube. He explained, "If you see on YouTube, the views of the latest episode are more than Karan Aujla‘s episode, but it hasn’t received that many likes. So, I thought something was wrong. So I did a bit of research and found that YouTube has come up with the sh***iest update of all time. Earlier, if you watched any YouTube video for 30 seconds, that was counted as one view, but now, even if you click a video even for a second, that will be counted as one view."
'100 million views means sh** now'
Samay argued that with this feature, YouTube views would mean nothing. He said, "This was not expected from YouTube. This is a very bad update. Also, now views mean nothing. It is sad. It looks great on the feed, but 100 million views means sh** now. I’m very disappointed with this update."

I was so happy that this latest episode broke all records, but now I am getting free views. What does it mean? My special was the most viewed video on YouTube with one 175 million views. Now, anybody can put any video, and they will get 100 million or more."
