A few days after it was initially posted, YouTube is commenting on the controversial video that Logan Paul uploaded showing the corpse of a man in Japan's "suicide forest." YouTube did this via an "open letter" that was five tweets long and acknowledged the gap since the video was posted, while also stating that they were looking into "further consequences."

Paul, who has over 15 million subscribers to his channel, has not posted anything in the days since he stated that he was taking time to reflect.
