sure

2020-02-19 16:58:31 UTC  

if i start my own business why do you get to tell me what i can do with it

2020-02-19 16:58:41 UTC  

and they can do what they want on their private channels I guess

2020-02-19 16:58:52 UTC  

hmm but then a business should be able to choose who they do business with.

2020-02-19 16:58:53 UTC  

private channels that i own from my company

2020-02-19 16:58:56 UTC  

you profit off my back

2020-02-19 16:59:06 UTC  

you dont own youtube

2020-02-19 17:00:17 UTC  

yeah they should be able to decide who they do business with... but remember, viewers aren't arent the consumers or business partners.. they are the product

2020-02-19 17:00:31 UTC  

who they do business with is advertisers

2020-02-19 17:00:48 UTC  

content creators are essentially contractor/employees

2020-02-19 17:00:58 UTC  

hmm

2020-02-19 17:01:06 UTC  

I see both sides.

2020-02-19 17:01:30 UTC

2020-02-19 17:01:33 UTC  

Autism

2020-02-19 17:01:40 UTC  

sargon is an employee of youtube lol

2020-02-19 17:02:01 UTC  

effectively... he is creating content, attracting more product

2020-02-19 17:02:06 UTC  

arnt content creators self employed?

2020-02-19 17:02:24 UTC  

for tax purposes yeah

2020-02-19 17:02:27 UTC  

theyre more like contractors

2020-02-19 17:02:35 UTC  

"like" means similar but not actually

2020-02-19 17:02:43 UTC  

so they are "like" that but not at all

2020-02-19 17:02:56 UTC  

weasel words because you know they arent contracted

2020-02-19 17:03:20 UTC  

you're not an employee of samsung cos you make phone calls on their phone

2020-02-19 17:03:21 UTC  

I mean when you get a channel you sign a contract (or press the agree button)

2020-02-19 17:03:40 UTC  

they get paid from youtube

2020-02-19 17:03:53 UTC  

hmm you share the money with youtube too.

2020-02-19 17:03:57 UTC  

60/40 split.

2020-02-19 17:04:02 UTC  

they get paid what youtube wants to pay them not what they have to

2020-02-19 17:04:08 UTC  

youtube doesnt have to pay you

2020-02-19 17:04:13 UTC  

they work for youtube by attracting more product and displaying advertisers for their customers

2020-02-19 17:04:22 UTC

2020-02-19 17:04:26 UTC

2020-02-19 17:05:23 UTC

2020-02-19 17:05:45 UTC

@wacka

2020-02-19 17:06:19 UTC
