YouTube Is Saying Goodbye to the Like and Alike Tally

youtube is going to hide the number of dislikes that a video actually receives. The dislike button will still be there, but you won't see how many times folks have clicked on this.

And then more people will pile on, and it becomes kind of an avalanche of dislikes.
