I don't really understand this change. What's the reason for doing this? The reason stated in the article isn't really clear. Can you address it?

You say you've talked to viewers about this. Was there a questionnaire given to viewers to fill out asking if this was an issue? I am sincerely asking because I honestly do not remember seeing one.

With all due respect, verifications are being taken away for well established channels that fought hard to be visible on YT, a lot of them for YEARS! They have distinguished themselves from the copy cat channels! This also puts new viewers at risk of being taken advantage of!
