This is exactly why so many people freak out about:

1) YouTube being the only place people go to watch videos online

2) These awful DMCA takedown processes.

Big tech has basically monopolized all the attention and all the talent. Some of the smartest people of our time are working on ad delivery platforms, aka propaganda machines.

Not only that, in this case it looks like a big advertiser can just call a senior exec at YouTube and yell at him and magically a channel that's critical of the advertiser will vanish. I'd be very surprised if I'm wrong.
