  • Thank you for demonetizing my channel and destroying my dreams. You need to understand that you are dealing with being human, with dreams and not with machines.
  • @theequalizer694
    you make it sound like you're proud that you made the most disliked youtube video ever.
  • @quotestrife682
    You know YouTube is being led by boomers when they think Lele pons is a decent example of a channel.
  • @gamement9784
    Welcome to 2019 Where small channels will get demonetized for no reason
  • @EditedByGQ
    You know it’s a big deal when half of the comments aren’t in English
  • @insertname193
    "We'll do better to tell YouTube's story in the year ahead." Please don't.
  • Youre prolly now the most unliked person within this whole platform. Youve gone too far
  • @EmperorLemon
    I am astounded that comments and ratings are enabled.
  • @danorD
    Le quitas la monetización a doc tops pero no a badabun!? Que irónico no!? Suerte viviendo con el odio de la mayoría de la comunidad de YouTube
  • @user-te2nu2mi4d
    Discord was made to be a better Skype, now we need a better YouTube
  • @coffee5736
    "Channels like lele pons and emma whatever her name" Yeah OK, the channels without real human beings on them.
  • @davidx7721
    Haz un favor a la gente y dimite. Like si vienes por Doc Tops
  • @PoppinDan
    You make me fear using YouTube as a platform to use. Slowly I feel that your even going to block content you personally don't think is needed for people...... I don't think your the right person for this job
  • @nielsdebont8419
    I will trust you once you embrace the fact that the most popular guy on your platform is an edgy guy who doesn’t care about companies or controversy and that the majority of your users love exactly that
  • Así que tú eres la responsable de que doc tops se fue de YouTube -.-
  • @ilowannabe4472
    People who got demonetised incredibly increased by 2000000000000000%
  • @xenozeno
    Article 13 is karma for YouTube's arbitrary demonetization rules and copyright strikes against its own creators. It will serve you right if it takes everything off the platform except cat videos. You deserve it for being so abusive towards the people whose hard work built this site.
