I was not going to comment further, but I would be remiss if I didn't point something out. Although I believe Youtube is now going to change course and help content creators thanks to the people some on here wanted to demonize, I want to make something clear if it was not already. I am a kid content creator on Youtube and I stand with the FTC on this. Despite knowing that this will result in a temporary decrease in revenue, I fully support this settlement. Although not the intent of COPPA (it will help clean up Youtube) and I fully believe Youtube has a plan to ensure that loyal family friendly content creators have a productive path forward. Good job Youtube. I stand corrected.
