lol, this is not the 1st time AT&T promised to stop advertising on youtube. I predict just like in 2006 and 2007 most of these companies will be back on youtube and advertising on them because mega corps care about profits and not morals. https://t.co/J01VVKZ4IK

Dang. So did YouTube Rewind get demonetized? https://t.co/osj6RYlZAg
— Aleks (@ImmortalHD) February 22, 2019
This is not a solution @YTCreators. These creators are the victims here, so punishing them is totally insane. What YouTube is doing here is essential the same as when Iran punishes a women for something a man did to her. Seriously YouTube... what the frack??!? https://t.co/Lxl3eELTpr

So now YouTube can punish creators by disabling the comment section & demonetizing videos if the comments aren’t ad friendly? if this is true, every youtuber needs to start looking for a new job. There are hardly any videos on youtube that lack vile comments. how is this fair? https://t.co/qOgWkwQ8Q6

(2/2) With regard to the actions that we've taken, even if your video is suitable for advertisers, inappropriate comments could result in your video receiving limited or no ads (yellow icon). Let us know if you have any questions.

(1/2) Hi there--for reference, over the past few days, we’ve taken a number of actions to better protect the YouTube community from content that endangers minors. Here is a tweet from @PhillyD for more context: https://t.co/pywO8uBfpL

[버지] 유튜브: 영상의 댓글로 광고를 제한하지 않는다https://t.co/incQJz2JT1

유튜브는 버지에 댓글로 이런 제한을 걸지 않는다고 밝혀왔다. 관리자가 착취적 댓글이 꼬이는 영상을 판단중이며, 이들 영상의 광고를 제한하는건 단기대책이라고 말함
Asked on @BloombergTV just a bit ago why YouTube even has comments still, and I gave a befuddling answer. It's befuddling! https://t.co/QKDYP5TzBs
