The ‘Hype Williams’ directed video includes several moments of quick edits and flashing lights that appear back to back to the tune of the song (with some lyrics lit and flashing as well). With that level of light work in the video, it could possibly cause seizures for photosensitive people with epilepsy. The British organization “Epilepsy Action” moved to have the video banned from the internet. A statement was issued by Epilepsy Action that included the following: “Epilepsy Action has contacted Kanye West's agent, YouTube and other online sources of the video to ask that they take it down.”
The video wasn’t pulled. However, it now comes with a warning:
"Warning: This video has been identified by Epilepsy Action to potentially trigger seizures for people with photosensitive epilepsy. Viewer discretion is advised."
