AdSense has always been a high-risk way to monetize content so I'm not sure why plenty of people are surprised by this. Advertisers want to sell to sheep/consumers, not those who watch enlightening videos.

Ownership is the only thing that matters.

Last time I checked, YouTube does not make a profit. It looks like a move designed to attract advertisers and make youtube profitable.

SJWs are just a few crazies with no real power, billionaire plutocrats and politicians who support authoritarianism are the real culprits here.
I see an incoming crackdown on freedom of speech and expression and I don't see any practical solution to counter it.

[TheBoom]

The Google gang and most of the rest of the social media companies, especially Twitter and Facebook, are filled with SJWs especially at the top. They are using this to stifle free speech. They realize that they have opened a Pandora's box and that people are not as easy to fool and control if they can speak their minds. They also truly think any speech that criticizes the plan is evil and they are doing a public service (which they can virtue signal about) by banning it. Once the Internet is turned over to the UN, they will then start coming after sites like this one and ROK.

I just got a question on the youtube front page asking how many of the videos recommended for me I found offensive.

can you make a YouTube channel subscriber-only and charge your followers?

Yes, they're called Paid Channels.

I just took a look at the listing of them and this showed up:



Are there really 2,000 people paying to see Youtube clips of women in Bikinis?

There are men who pay at least 3,000.00 US$ to see women eat restaurant food on videos..The beta bucks thirst is strong while male students under 16 are getting free sex from their Millennial-age teachers these days.

Point is, if the dating market is rigged, more beta bucks will be wasting money on Video Requests and Webcam thots because that may be their only legal option to experience "sex".

There was this "breastfeeding" YouTube thot named "Sexy Spiritual Tasha Mama" who had a beta bucks offer her 10,000 US$ for her used underwear. It's outrageous that YouTube doesn't penalize videos where she is naked with 5-year-old boys because she is "breastfeeding" them as she lays naked for them.

But make a critic remark about Hillary Clinton on a YouTube video? BANNED....

YouTube just want to promote demented women who want to video themselves naked with children "breastfeeding". I wouldn't be surprised if beta bucks who start streaming such videos will be subject to search warrants for "streaming illegal content" while the content makers who were posing naked with children for video in the first place will be given a free pass..This is how the SJW world is today, and it's only getting more bizarre

Oh they are De-Monetizing...i thought you meant Demon-itizing.

This thread needs a bump and a spelling change. It looks as if this is part of a much wider SJW censorship effort across Google, Twitter, and Youtube:

So YouTube is going to turn into Reddit? I guess that's good news because now if competitors step up their game and pick up the slack it will be an easy choice for content creators to finally leave Google's ecosystem once and for all.

I listen to all my music through YouTube. I got nostalgic tonight and have been listening to old albums from high school. I clicked on Underoath's 'They're Only Chasing Safety' about 5 minutes ago and the advertisement was anti-Hillary.

I've never seen any anti-Hillary commercials, especially on YouTube. It said it was paid for by the Make America Number 1 Super-PAC.

Went back and found it on YouTube.

h3h3 also did a video about the "Youtube Heroes" thing. It incentivises tattling on anything that isn't goodthink which causes the content creators being reported on to lose money. Youtube is essentially recruiting for its content-Stasi, unpaid of course, presenting it as some sort of game or challenge.

It's very telling that 1. The comments are disabled on the original video 2. The like/dislike ratio is astronomically dislike as expected

Hmmm... so what's to stop an army of 4chan leveling up in this program, then shutting down channels like sarkesian?
