YouTube Upcoming Changes. Not For The Better.

I received this email from YouTube creators. As of February 20, 2018 ...no longer eligible for monetization because it doesn’t meet the new threshold of 4,000 hours of watchtime within the past 12 months and 1,000 subscribers. As a result, your channel will lose access to all monetization tools and features associated with the YouTube Partner Program on February 20, 2018 unless you surpass this threshold in the next 30 days. Accordingly, this email serves as 30 days notice that your YouTube Partner Program terms are terminated.

How sad that YouTube has officially become the enemy. They are the status quo the "New World Order" gang. So safe to say that my days at YouTube are numbered. However I, like many, will not take this laying down. Oh no, I, just like others, will use other platforms. Steem will be one and life will move on without YouTube and its slowly tightening noose.
