Turns out this channel is how Google keeps tabs on upload quality. Clips are sent to YouTube's servers and then compared against the original file to ensure that the quality remains the same. The account going viral was just an accident, though once it happened Google was more than happy to play into the fun.Those other accounts that have since vanished or gone private? They're all Google test accounts too, though the web giant wouldn't divulge what exactly Ekaterina Basic or Timmy Tester were experimenting with.
