We've made updates to the YouTube Partner Program to strengthen our community & prevent impersonators + spammers from harming our platform. We understand this affects many channels, but believe it's necessary to protect our creators. For the full updatehttps://goo.gl/T1pvG3
This update has been in the works for awhile w/ the goal of preventing bad content (like spammers, impersonators, etc) from monetizing. While it will impact some good channels, we believe it's the best compromise to protect our community.

The 4,000 Hours threshold works to the benefit of bad creators, because they can copy the work of others and there is little to no effort on their end. On top of that, bad creators will just put out more bad content to meet your requirement. This hurts very creative people.

So now that 4000 hrs of content is a minimum you want more low quality, no content junk to spam your platform. That sounds like a smart idea.

This could be handled in a better way. You place a majority of good creators with the bad. This has been the second time that I know of, where a big youtuber does something to hurt youtubes integrity, and your response negatively affects everyone below them, and not them.

I feel all sorts of wretched channels are grandfathered in with these rules, and many very good shows feel punished. Sad.
