Think of the Advertisers!/Quotes

""[Demonetization on YouTube] seems to strike at random. Sometimes it seems targeted, sometimes it seems like they blacklist whole channels. Like: "That channel talks about stuff that we don't like." [snaps fingers] "Blacklisted. Blacklisted." And I don't think they're doing it for any nefarious reasons. I really think it's advertiser pressure. And every time that one of these companies caves to advertiser pressure, they are doing a double-edged sword to themselves and free speech at the same time. And when I say free speech, I mean it in the realest sense of the term. Just, if you're discouraging people to talk about certain things [forbidden by the Community Guidelines], you're going to stifle discourse. You just will.""

""And now, a word from the people who make this show possible. That is, when they aren't making it impossible.""
