Ze Germans are coming!

Basically, a lot of Tubers are getting fed up with the arbitrary and opaque way their videos are demonetised and deleted. So, some German bloke has gotten the union IG Metal on the case. They're making some basic demands; make the process transparent, give content creators a real human contact, representation, etc. And to show they mean business, they've given YT a month to respond or else things are going to get mighty GDPR and employment contract law out there.

Delightful video laying out the issues and their proposed solutions:

Who knows, maybe this will bring Sargon and Shaun together on a unified platform.
