please do tell me about how the most iconnic youtubers were all backed by billionaires

they were though

youtube is not your boss, and isn't cutting your paycheck

Mate you'll notice that all modern day Youtubers are either hold overs from 5-10 years ago, or are, yes, backed by the platform.

they are seeking to actively enhance the website, opening up more opportunities, and are an independent company you work with as a partner

you're essentially a subcontractor to them

do you have any idea how subcontractors usually get treated?

Why are you two arguing like fags over this

just disagree and be done

he can't step away until the guilt sinks in

leftie logic

no it isn't, he just wants youtube treated as a public utility and regulated, probably just can't articulate it that way

it's a business

You are using the fact that Youtube is business to completely ignore all of their problems that they have created by neglecting their community

it's unethical to even try to claim it when it's not fucking yours 😂

so that's your stance that business is sacred

Yes of course it is a business, but that doesn't change the fact that that business is built on the backs of people

people who it provides opportunities and entertainment to

If you fuck with people who your business stands, you are going to fall

you two aren't going to convince each other lmao

youtube doesn't need to do jack shit to appease you, it simply chooses to because it's good business practice to provide an appealing service - which it does

but providing an appealing service does not mean presenting its rear for you to enjoy as you wish

it is going to do things you do not want, and that's life

but @the_bestapo you should just argue that youtube is a natural monopoly and should be regulated as a utility

that's the only reasonable way to come at it

Well if it doesn't have to do anything to appease the people who's videos they are running ads on, then what the fuck happens when the people just leave?

No one is going to take bullshit forever.

1. they won't

Yes, they will.

and 2. that's their loss if they do

yeah I can see youtube's traffic has already dropped to nobody overnight

you're right

all leaving

Not overnight retard.

Gradually.

just so happens to be without any real competition for people to go to

People are not going to tolerate having their money taken away everytime they give the wrong opinion to the Google machine.

enough guilt tripping

google provides opportunity and money

it is not taking anyone's fucking money
