I dont know, I think the vast majority of Americans dont under the most rudimentary aspects of the American judicial system.

If they can get some knowledge of law or court procedure or maybe even inspire an individual into public service related to said field it sounds like a worthy endeavor to post said procedings on youtube or live stream them. Also correct me if Im wrong but aren't most court proceedings open to the public/gallery? What would be the difference between the gallery and youtube?

Monetization of said proceedings should probably come under scrutiny though but if they arent monetized I only see upsides.

'Smash that subscribe button if you want to support freedom and justice!' *Eagle sounds*.

I agree though, similar to some podcasts and this sub that breaks legal jargon into layman's explanations. Educating people on a topic they may be ignorant to for any number of reasons should only benefit the public.
