> we believe he has exhibited a pattern of behavior in his videos that makes his channel not only unsuitable for advertisers
I'm indifferent on Logan Paul, but this sounds like classic bullshit, considering how his channel generates over $10m a year, stated previously in the article. Sounds like YouTube is scared that one bad apple is going to spoil the rest of them. This would be a non-issue in a decentralized platform.
Centralized gatekeepers who personally green-light all of the content coming through the platform doesn't scale, and it's not provably fair at all. Just as we saw with governments, it is impossible for a single highly responsible entity to give proper attention to real issues and problems in a fair way. As long as a handful of far-removed people in a room are making decisions, we will continue to observe freedoms being taken away.
