YouTube adds ads but won't pay all content-makers
Found on BBC News on Saturday, 28 November 2020
The company currently shares ad revenue with video-makers who are enrolled in its partnership scheme, when it shows ads before or during their content.
Changes to its terms of service mean YouTube will not share the revenue from those ads with the video-makers.
"It's another policy change that seems likely to rankle with ordinary creators, who have often felt aggrieved that YouTube capitalises on their content without properly compensating them - or recognising their contribution to the success of the platform."
People will get annoyed and shift towards other sites. Yes, Youtube is big, but that does not mean it cannot get into troubles if it abuses its position.
