YouTube is Demonetizing Accounts

YouTube is Demonetizing Accounts

Here's a quick heads up that YouTube has just come out with new policies on videos and is Demonetizing accounts, especially related to death or implied death.

I was hoping the MikenRickOutdoors wouldn't fall into that category as we do show hunting videos, and sometimes we do show the shot and the buck afterwards, but I always put "Warning" comments up, even on the thumbnail, so people won't accidentally see something about hunting that they don't want to see.

Well, it looks like they have demonetized our YouTube account. I'll have to check into it more but it looks like it has happened.

Comments welcomed, as I try to not to let this effect my day.
