YouTube is definitely flawed and has made a lot of mistakes over the years, but Phil owes his entire career to them. Remember the meltdown when there was the issue with his AdSense account and he didn't make any money off YouTube for a couple weeks? He brought that up for months afterwards, despite constantly claiming that YouTube is merely an archive. Sort of seems like he needs YouTube enough that he shouldn't keep badmouthing them.

Edit: Just saw the video of him claiming YouTube only exists because of money they got from Google, and they never accept feedback from anyone. Phil is the least self-aware person in the world.

Phil constantly forgets that Youtube is a privelege, not a right.

Phil believes that he should get more money, because his content (and that of other content creators) is what makes Youtube money, and they should be rewarded properly for it, because without them, Youtube would get no traffic. Now of course, there is a mutual beneficial relationship between content creators and Youtube, but it it's not that simple.

Some things that Phil, and a lot of entitled fucks on Youtube aswell constantly overlook:

-Youtube is not an employer, you are not an employee, therefor you have no contract, and they have no obligation to pay you for your effort, you should consider yourself lucky you can make money playing games, sitting on your ass all day.

-Youtube costs a metric fuckton of money to keep in the air. Things Phil loves to overlook is that Youtube offers unlimited space to upload content, no bandwith restrictions when people view that content. Oh and for ABSOLUTELY FUCKING FREE. All you have to do tongst started, is make an account.

-By running adds on content, Youtube can cover the massive costs of the above mentioned. But generous as they are, for the services they offer, they also give you a cut.

-Youtube can change whatever the fuck they want to change, but if you disagree with their policu, you are free to fuck off, they have no obligation to pander to you, or any other self entitled fuck. You are using a free platform and should thank fuck every day you can get paid for doing absolutely fucking nothing.

-Youtube also has no obligation to take care of you. If they want to terminate your channel tomorrow, then you are shit out of luck. They may have a "moral" obligation, but certainly nog legal one. Or does anyone have a direct contract with Youtube that states how much money they get for their efforts?

-The fact that you have no back-up plan should you go tits up, is neither Youtubes fault, nor concern. You choose to put all your eggs in one basket, you didn't cultivate alternatives for when the well dries up. Youtube is not responsible for your lack of foresight.

-Youtube is ultimatly a company, and what matters most is brining in money so they can keep going and pay their ACTUAL employees.

For someone with a business degree, Phil lacks any and all understanding as how a business works.

Sorry for the angry rant, but Youtubers and Phil in general piss me the fuck off when their incomes dio and they are facing rough times. Youtube is not a job, they are not your boss/employer and they owe you shit. YOU chose to take the risk, but you are unwilling to shoulder the consequences when shit hits the fan. That is on YOU.
