Sometimes it ain't about the revenue stream.

No! I'm sick of these influencers giving a platform to fascist birds. Enough is enough! #cancelmrpigeon

Is that supposed to be a abd thing?

I feel like this site needs more attention.

No, i don't really have an opinion either way.

Yeah it's strange why more people don't just give into corporate greed and losing ownership of their channels when they discuss potential (obvious) corruption.

Upsetting that they would react in a negative way!

Elaborate? Genuinely asking.. what is your key takeaways for "it's a shit hole"?

Chasing the high? You think that is why he does that? Sit down and think ..THINK what you just said .. according to you his motivation is some junky high chase?

"I don't watch his channel but let me give an opinion ". Are you stupid or something? If you know little to nothing about a topic educate yourself or shut your mouth you muppet. He has the balls to go against giants and has had success at it. Rossman is the same. You can't play nice guy against asshole corporations. What was the last win you had in consumer advocacy? You ass..

The only high he's chasing is a money one. Controversy brings clicks.

3 dmca/copyright strikes on a channel and yt deletes you. It was mentioned near the beginning of the video.

At the end of the day he's running a business and has had lots of financial success with this type of "product," so it makes sense to focus your efforts on said product going forward.

I like that he's exposing corruption, but question his motivations and use of clickbait. I'm not really passing judgement on him either way and things don't always have to be black and white, "good" or "bad."

Do you have something to add? Asking if my stated opinion is "what I think" in three different ways isn't really contributing much to the conversation.

Except for these people, it almost definitely is. They have staff, an office, inventory to manage, etc. Most YouTubers nowadays aren't just operating on their own, and thus have financial expenses outside of just paying themselves for their own labor, that can't just keep going if their revenue stream goes down, or even just takes a large enough cut.

It's unfortunate, but that's just how a lot of the content creation industry works right now, especially on YouTube.

He goes into detail on some of the videos, but to summarize the "controversial" videos due less well when it comes to recouping the money it takes to film them (if at all). They (often):

• have to account for more travel expenses to interview people
• can't be sponsored since no one wants to sign up for those kinds of pieces and depend on ad revenue alone
• can include additional legal costs (have lawyers review things, etc. )
• for things that are time sensitive, they can also mess with the work life balance of the team and the regularly scheduled content they've been working on
• stress from dealing with mega corps with the money to ruin you as a side quest

GN is literally a sizable business, it absolutely is.

Just checked the contributor's page, the crawled privacy policy being referenced is stated to be 4 months out of date, but the policy on Nebula's website hasn't been changed since Aug 31 2023, so I think TOSDR might be a little bugged, and just doesn't have all the current policy's points available for contributors to tag. The current privacy policy is much more lengthy to cover local state privacy regulations, the scope of what they now offer, etc.

Still, it's all pretty boilerplate, and nothing about it is really out of the ordinary or super harmful. Extremely basic attribution might be used if you click onto Nebula from an ad, and they might share a non-identifying hashed ID with that company. They'll collect aggregate statistics to determine the impact of marketing campaigns, they sometimes email you, they collect data on your device that most webservers would by default in logs. All very standard.

If they update any part of the policy about how they collect/use/share your data, they'll notify you,

They even explicitly say to not provide them with info on your race/politics/religion/health/biometrics/genetics/criminality or union membership. You are given an explicit right to delete your account regardless of local privacy laws, and they give you a single email to contact specifically regarding any requests related to the privacy policy.

None of this is crazy, and I have no clue why artyom would call it a "shithole" based on that.

What do you want people to buy food with. Welfare checks lol? Where would they get money to buy stuff for testing. They have an acoustic chamber that's fairly expensive.

Revenue and professional channels are intimately linked and removing the revenue stream would open them up to bought reviews like heiLTT.

Not just storage, but bandwidth. Streaming one video to potentially thousands of people at once can get very expensive.

What the hell happened? .did my comment hurt you or some one you love?

I don't care about him enough to go see if all the drama is justified, so I'm not going to. I just said what I thought, and without pretending to know it all.

If only those who are up to date in his drama are allowed to say anything, then you only hear the crybaby fanboys, because nobody else cares

Uh. Good for him
