3 min
Tim and Mike Rine open discussing Rich Torres attacking Sean McCarthy on Twitter, then riff on arbitrary YouTube demonetization, comparing it to a dictator doing random raids to keep creators afraid.
- Mike Rine has a new special on the Out for Smokes YouTube channel
- Richie Torres, a Bronx congressman, was tweeting about Sean McCarthy
- Tim can't figure out how much money YouTube is paying him when he checks his account
- The arbitrary system is where the fear comes from, because you don't know what will trigger demonetization
- YouTube's strategy is like a dictator running random raids—creating fear through unpredictability
