Youtube can close a channel if it is not commercially viable

YouTube has recently updated its Terms of Service. This is something that the well-known website usually does every few months, although in the new version they have left with a change that has not gone unnoticed. Since the web now saves the possibility of closing any channel if it is not commercially viable. A controversial decision that already generates controversy.

The website reserves this possibility. At all times the user will be notified if the website makes such a decision. Although this is not something that has sat too well.

Controversial decision

This new YouTube regulation will begin to apply in most territories from December 10. Although in Switzerland it has been running for a few months, where it has been used as a test. Users who see how their channel is closed for this reason may appeal said decision of the firm. So there may be cases where the channel is not closed.

The reason why this decision was made is not well known. Some media talk about a movement to fight ad blockers. It seems strange that this is a measure that works in this sense.

Without a doubt, it promises to be something controversial that users on YouTube do not like too much. We will see if from December 10, when this measure comes into force, many channels are closed arguing that they are not commercially viable.
