The internet will route around this block, just like it has always routed around other obstacles.

Infosec people tend to be crafty (it's a job requirement imo) and quite a lot of the greybeards were part of building the infrastructure from the beginning, so no need to despair yet.

But regular laymen never look beyond youtube (everything non-advertized and popular in general). There is no business model in being underground greybeard publisher.

Considering that you can pull in 100-300k as a security professional at a company, and a multiple of that as a consultant, I don't think that YouTube ad money is that big a deal
