I can't wait for all the videos showing you how to repair your own stuff gets outlawed.
Right now it's 'hacking' or possibly circumventing proprietary systems that are trying to get you to purchase a new device or contact them directly rather than fix it yourself if you have the technical know how.
Today it's Software/Hardware and computer systems.
How long until looking up a you-tube video on how to repair your John Deer tractor or iOS device gets banned.
Take it further and how long until all repair/tear down/fix videos get banned from their platform.
Everyone is yelling, just repeal their platform status like it is going to change anything. They've used that status to grow to the size they are now and even if they are forced to go publisher it wouldn't change anything other than them being more brazen at the censorship in my opinion.
I agree, to a point, but I think part of the idea behind the platform -> publisher push is to force YouTube to start making hard choices, where they either become financially untenable trying to stay on top of all the content they're now somewhat legally culpable for, or they ramp up the censorship so quickly and so broadly as to annoy enough of the community to make other platforms viable.
