This doesn't mention react content though, it seems like a general statement. Have they said if this actually affects react channels?

This is the only type of content that the policy change might remove in my opinion.
Otherwise, what would the policy include other than this?

In your opinion it will be reaction videos? There's so many other kinds of "unoriginal" content they could be targeting. AI slop, the videos that are a single still image of a product zooming in and out slowly, there's tons of different kinds of unoriginal out there.

It would make sense that they don't want to get sued following the recent controversy. Might also be aimed at undermining the AI slop (that Google doesn't profit from)

Another seemingly strange trend is some kids uploading screenshots of technical manual PDFs and reading them out loud.
On one hand, kudos for the ingenuity. I love to see young people being entrepreneurial. On the other hand, I've read the PDF an hour ago, now I'm looking for hands-on personal experience with the product, to solve a very specific probelm!
