Disgruntled video-maker who expressed anger at YouTube policies ID’d as shooter

The woman suspected of opening fire at YouTube’s headquarters in San Bruno Tuesday was a disgruntled video-maker, Nasim Aghdam of Southern California, law enforcement sources told The Chronicle.

On a website consisting of a collage of photos and video posts, Aghdam rails against YouTube for taking down some of her videos and for skimping on revenue driven by the traffic to her YouTube page.

“There is no equal growth opportunity on YOUTUBE or any other video sharing site, your channel will grow if they want to!!!!!” Aghdam wrote. “Youtube filtered my channels to keep them from getting views!”

On Tuesday evening, her YouTube videos were taken down, apparently by the company.
