'I can’t trust YouTube any more': creators speak out in Google advertising row

Summary | YouTube has faced much crticism because they have failed to withhold advertising from grossly offensive content on their platform, for instance terrorist or anti-semite videos. Advertisers have pulled back their payments in response. YouTube creators are also unhappy because a lot of their non-offensive videos are deemed not advertiser-friendly by the algorithm so they cannot monetize from those videos. This has led to a lot of censorship of eating disorder and LGBTQ content. YouTube overall seems to be more advertiser-friendly than creator-friendly.
