RE: Lessons from the Internet's Early Days
content creators are being de-monetized faster than a factory worker under a soviet regime.
That's a nice comparison right there haha.
I don't really understand how can google demonetize so many youtubers? It doesn't make sense to me. But as you say in the article, this can be good for blockchain based video sites like dtube.
They are in such a market position where they can. Youtube is the place to be for video content creators, everyone knows it, and it's just like google.
@dedicatedguy as @igster mentionned they are in a position where they can, and Google's main income isn't YouTube especially if they want to dominate the data war, they would try to control the narrative and influence.
This mass demonitization has been going on for a while and even addressed by some of the biggest Youtubers like Piewdepie, Dave Franco, Casey Neistat..etc.
But as you said, this could be a good opportunity for competing sites. :)
