YouTube's New Sponser Policy

[CoolMoo5]

YouTube has a new policy for sponsorships. I don't know if I like the idea, but I don't do brand deals, and I'm small channel, so it doesn't affect me.

But here is the info. It is definitely worth a look. The fact that YouTube doesn't really have any competition is scary and they can do whatever they want and no one can really stop them or move to another site.

Hey @Micheal please merge this. I didn't want to report my own thread.

Saw this coming from a mile. Big corporations are getting off whenever they smell money.

It doesn´t matter. If a company pays me to review their cake, i can still review their cake, in a more subtle way. I can eat the cake and talk about it. YT doesn´t need to know i´m being paid for it.

I hadn't thought about how many people were doing Loot Crate and Audible sponsorship deals.
