Half the time it's really distracting and/or you struggle to understand what they're talking about, and the other half you very clearly know what they're talking about and they're trying to escape on the technicality that they've muted out one word again and again.

My understanding of youtube content rules is: you fill out an honors-system questionnaire about what content is in your video (basically sex/violence). If you say "yes I mention guns but it's educational" it'll immediately say, "well then it's demonetized" which admittedly sucks

So, you can either accept being fully or partially demonetized, write around including that content, or lie. Like with tax auditing there's a - I think small - chance that your video will later be manually reviewed.

If it's found that you've ever lied, your channel gets flagged and you're no longer eligible for the honors-system questionnaire. I haven't had this happen but I think at this point all of your videos are demonetized by default, until someone at youtube can manually review them.

But now we have this weird 4th option where people will freely talk about rape or suicide but drop out the audio, so they can then say on the questionnaire, "I don't mention suicide." But as I said earlier, a lot of the time the video is largely and obviously about suicide.

I have no idea if a manual review would hear the muted audio and go, "well technically they didn't talk about it." But I does appear that youtube has created a system which rewards dishonesty and makes it impossible for viewers to filter out topics they might not want to hear
