YouTube (Un)Blocks Blender Videos

Google made the option to mark a video as unmonetized in the first place, I don't see how it can be an uploader's fault for using an available option?

Now they are taking that option away. They should get to dictate the terms of use of their free service, IMO. It's still a massive dick move. But what can you do?

Nobody has an issue with that, the problem is they're apparently doing that without any announcement or clear communication

Well, you could write a blog post about it, so that Google gets the bad press it deserves for this dick move...
