After criticism, YouTube plans to change a policy announced in November that limits ads or demonetizes a creator's video if they swear in the first 15 seconds
YouTube's promising to fix the swearing issue that's pissed off creators https://www.theverge.com/...

@ProZD @verge I said “heck” on Twitter once, and Youtube demonetized my entire channel. I don't even have video's uploaded.

YouTube is increasingly turning into cable tv in that there are countless channels but nothing on, and it will be crushed by an algorithm that promotes history channel-esque nonsense, reality tv, and censorship of any good content. https://twitter.com/...

The main issue I had with this is creators followed the rules when they made these videos. Now YouTube changed the rules not going forward but affecting videos that already had been posted on the site. https://twitter.com/...
