Below I just pasted some text, so Google could rank this video higher and so you could find it and make money on YouTube. Ignore what’s below and watch the video above.
So unless you’re new to this platform, over the last year you’ve likely seen hundreds of YouTubers complaining about YouTube’s monetization system, calling it unfair, inconsistent, lazy, and, political…“And guys, the first thing today is that I don’t think that I can call you beautiful bastards anymore because apparently that, and several other things I do, are not, quote,‘advertiser friendly’. ”The text you see highlighted is an admission by the YouTube team that none of their rules were broken, and it is immediately followed by a wild guess! A line of reasoning that is so vague and vapid that it could be argued against any YouTube video ever! Any song, any monologue, any home video. ”This is called selective enforcement. When you have rules that are so general that you can prosecute pretty much anyone you want. When you use that broadness to enforce a certain ideology, that’s censorship. ”What is the purpose of having guidelines if it doesn’t matter whether or not they’re violated!All that’s been violated is the trust of the creator. ”But for us creators, loyalty is a very delicate thing here. Most YouTubers won’t admit it but a YouTube channel is a business, and the minute that business can’t make money because of something you’re deciding, the loyalty becomes very frail. ”Now while I wholeheartedly agree with these criticisms, within this video I’m going to make a slightly different argument – and it’s this. By giving monetized content significant advantages, YouTube is, despite their protestations to the contrary, ‘telling content creators what to create’, and this just adds to their overwhelming stench of hypocrisy.
This is YouTube’s Monetization System – Debunked. So, this video is primarily a rebuttal to YouTube’s Advertiser-Friendly Content Guidelines, which, as I’m about to argue, falsely asserts that “We aren’t telling you what to create—eachand every creator on YouTube is unique and contributes to the vibrancy of YouTube”. But before I make my case against this assertion, I think it’s necessary that I first take on the sentence that succeeds it, both to illustrate that I understand YouTube’s situation and to make my case all the clearer. The sentence is as follows, “However, advertisers also have a choice about where to show their ads”. Now, as someone who’s worked in advertising, I appreciate that advertisers have a choice about where to show their ads, but I happen to know, with certainty, that the vast majority of advertisers don’t choose which videos they’d like to show their ads on – youtube does. Most advertisers simple upload their ad, add a title and description, set a budget, select which demographics they’d like to reach, and then YouTube does the rest. . . And this explains exactly why brands such as Domino’s appear to be happy advertise on video that calls everyone who voted for Brexit an idiot: “and it just kind of proves that people over there aren’t really smart but apparently it’s just the accent makes them seem smart…You idiots!”, but refuse to advertise on a video that respectfully articulates arguments in favor of Brexit: “The main reason I’m voting to leave is that first of all, Britain needs its own sovereignty!And the effect that being in the EU has had no low-skilled workers, which the remaining campaign don’t seem to be able to grasp. ”The reason for this is because Domino’s didn’t choose which videos to show their ads on – YouTube did. And be this due to unintentional flaws in their algorithm or intentional allegiances, for the purpose of my main argument, it doesn’t matter. . . if YouTube deems a video that’santi-Brexit ‘advertiser friendly’ but a video that’s pro-Brexit not ‘advertiserfriendly’, then, while this is ironically profoundly anti-democratic, it’s within their right to do so – they’re a private company, and it’s their prerogative. However, what’s not within their right (and this is my main argument), is for them to insist that they’re not telling content creators what to create while simultaneously giving massive advantages to monetized content. You see, YouTube’s algorithm strongly favors monetized content, because, understandably, monetized content makes them money, while demonetized content is, according to them, potentially abusive, harmful, offensive or violent – which are all things that they don’t want to associate with, let alone promote. The result of this, however, is that by giving far greater exposure to content that they politically agree with…I mean, that’s ‘advertiser friendly’, they’re telling content creators what not to create, and in doing so, what to create.
New YouTube Update
Channels like mine (that is, channels that criticise and ridicule religion), are screwed. I simply don’t have the “right” narrative; I’m not making the “right” videos. According to YouTube, atheists simply don’t like Dominoes. So, it’s all very well complaining… but, what’s the solution?Well, I think I have one. If YouTube really wants to have their cake and eat it too – that is, if they want to demonetize content that they deem not ‘advertiser friendly’, while not implicitly telling content creators what to create, then they need only do two things. The first is that they have to be consistent.
If, for example, they’re going to tell content creators that they have a policy not to run ads on videos about tragedies, then they can’t demonetize one video but allow monetization of another! Or in other words, they have to cease this outrageous selective enforcement! And the second is that with the exception of the ability to make money, they have to give demonetized content the exact same opportunities that they give to monetized content. If a demonetized video performs well, then they have to promote it as if it was monetized. If YouTube was to make these two simple changes, then I, and many other content creators, while still not being entirely satisfied with the situation, will accept their assertion that they not telling us what to create and that they actually care about their creators…Or, alternatively, YouTube can say, as they have been saying through their covert actions for over a year now, ‘Hey, we are a private company and we are going to continue to give significant advantages to content that we politically agree with… ah, I did it again…Imean, that’s ‘advertiser friendly’, and that’s our prerogative. ”And to that, I would say ‘fine’, I respect the honesty, as I respect your company, but don’t tell me that you’re not telling me what to create because by telling me what I can’t create, you’re telling me what I can create. Oh, and do us all the favour of rewording your Advertiser-Friendly Content Guidelines to say “We will arbitrarily decide if your content is suitable for the advantages of monetization”, because, as Counter Arguments eloquently put it, “What is the purpose of having guidelines if it doesn’t matter whether or not they’re violated!”You’ve fallen a long way YouTube. You’ve violated the trust of the people who made you what you are, and you’re currently shitting on them as gratitude. I hope that you can become great again, but for now, you’ve sold-out, and slowly but surely everybody is recognizing this. As always, thank you kindly for the view, and if you happen to be a content creator that’s suffering from this system, then please do consider sharing this video. The more voices we have, the louder we are, and maybe… just maybe, YouTube will hear us. But, then again, this is unlikely, because this video isn’t monetized…And of course, an extra special and sincere thank you to my patrons. Your support has never been more needed, and without you, YouTube would indeed have silenced me, and so thank you.
