YouTube getting greedier by Unownace

You're receiving this email because we're updating the YouTube Terms of Service ('Terms') to clarify our terms and provide transparency to our users. The Terms were similarly updated in the United States in November 2020. These changes shouldn't significantly alter your access or use of the YouTube service.

A summary of the changes:

Facial recognition restrictions: The Terms of Service already state that you cannot collect any information that might identify a person without their permission. While this has always included facial recognition information, the new Terms make that explicitly clear.
YouTube's right to monetise: YouTube has the right to monetise all content on the platform, and ads may appear on videos from channels not in the YouTube Partner Programme.
Royalty payments and tax withholding: For creators entitled to revenue payments, such payments will be treated as royalties from a US tax perspective, and Google will withhold taxes where required by law.

Please make sure that you read the updates to the Terms carefully. The new Terms will take effect on 1 June 2021 for users outside the US. By continuing to use YouTube after this date, you are agreeing to the new Terms. Please note, if you allow your child to use YouTube Kids, then you are agreeing to the new Terms on behalf of your child as well.


(This is why EVERYONE should have Adblock installed in their browsers. I only EVER pause Adblock on channels that I want to support and I KNOW that it is indeed supporting them.)

    I’ve had that email from YouTube myself and the exact same Terms and a services update.

      Everyone did, even people with no videos on their channels.
