YouTube Temporarily Demonetizes Dave Rubin Interview with Thomas Sowell
Breitbart ^ | April 23, 2018 | Lucas Nolan

YouTube reportedly demonetized an interview with Dave Rubin of the popular internet show the Rubin Report and American political philosopher and author Thomas Sowell. The video was monetized shortly after Rubin publicly demanded an explanation from YouTube.

Dave Rubin, the host of the Rubin Report, an internet series in which Rubin interviews a number of media and internet personalities, took to Twitter to reveal that an interview he conducted with political philosopher and author Thomas Sowell had been demonetized. When a video is demonetized, it means that the creator of the video no longer receives a percentage of ad revenue — a primary source of income for many YouTuber creators and internet content developers.

Rubin called for YouTube to explain the demonetization of the interview in two tweets, in one Rubin stated: “Just finish fun event at @Dartmouth and my guys showed me that Part 1 with Thomas Sowell was demonetized. It had been monetized which means a human went back in and hit it. What the actual fuck @TeamYouTube? Or Does the algorithm pass things and then get them if they succeed?”

Correct. Note I did say “minimizing” and not “eliminating”. And I expect Duck will improve.

And further, I bet it’s closer to 90% for me.

Try Gab AI. I can ask my son for the exact website later.I

Gab is uncensored, though. I’m afraid it’s becoming like 4chan.

Bing is on my work computer by default. I still sometimes have to switch to Google, but not as often as with Duck duck go.

Hopefully, the alternate search engines will improve in functionality.
