YouTube, as of now and since inception, doesn’t run a profit. Not every business that chooses to follow the rules does so because of money.

That doesn't mean it doesn't make money.

You’re missing the point; businesses operate to make a profit, not to simply make $$$. If YouTube actually cared about it’s bottom line, the actions they’re taking are the result of that. Since it has losses, the “doing it for the $$$” narrative doesn’t fly.

You're missing the point. Something pays for all the servers Youtube uses. That thing is money. Generated by ads. Whether it creates a profit or not, it's still making Google plenty of money.

If YouTube is not making a profit, then it’s costing YouTube money; which means it’s not paying for anything, by definition. That means the servers and other items you’ve mentioned isn’t coming from the money YouTube generates. That should be very obvious.

Lol. If only there were something between profit and loss, like... zero. Where you make enough money to cover costs, pay for all those servers. You can still be desperate to make money, even if you aren't making a profit.

That’s called, “break even.” As I’ve already mentioned, YouTube is “losing moving” not breaking even.

Lol, okay bro. To return to the original post, youtube is motivated by making money, which means they'll break their own TOS if it makes them money.

If you understand YouTube’s business model, you’ll eventually realize what you’re saying is inaccurate. Looking at simple current events should be enough to explain why.

Andre, have you read this thread at all? The whole point they are making here is that TOS isn't enforced equally, because some videos or producers make money, or make more than others.

There is no evidence that money was a factor. None.

They allege there is, and you haven't posted anything to prove otherwise.
