"To ensure that families have access to high-quality content, we partner with organizations like UNICEF and PBS Kids to curate ‘collections’ within the YouTube Kids app. We also provide resources for creators, developed with children’s media experts, that offer best practices when creating for kids and families.These efforts and our continuing consultation with experts will form the basis of the upcoming $100 million content fund that we announced earlier this year." -Youtube to FTC
There is our answer to where the 100 million will go. UNICEF and PBS are great organizations, but this is just Youtube trying to appease. Not a penny will go to the hard working loyal creators that brought kids to the platform. I have a couple of contractual obligations that need to expire and then I'm taking Youtube LLC to federal court. I know it will get tossed in summary judgement, but I just want to make it to the discovery phase. We all deserve the truth and answers. To be clear, I don't care one bit about profit or ad revenue. We just want to be able to run our channel like we have for years with our views back and interaction. If this means zero ad revenue, I am fine with that. While I care about creators that made this a business, for us it is about dignity and being deceived by an unscrupulous company with incompetent leadership. A company that embraces progressive ideals of compassion and caring, yet in reality are hypocritical elitists that are grossly overpaid and rely on the work of a few people that actually know what they are doing while taking credit for everything they do for the few things they get right as a company. A entity led by a person that champions the cause of paid leave for parenting purposes, yet can't stand up for families that helped her become so successful and rich beyond belief (to the tune of 500 million dollars). The hypocrisy and lack of transparency from Susan Wojcicki truly shocks the conscious. Susan claims she works so hard for equal opportunity yet sits by idly while a company under her direct control destroys numerous minority and women operated kid channels. Youtube has allowed so many regular people to come from nothing and attain so much and now Susan is just going to let this all go away. Such a crying shame.
