  YouTube steals other people’s work?

  I tend to watch content creators who willingly put their content on YouTube. Am I missing something here…?

    You are missing something. Multiple things actually.

    • most content isn’t uploaded by the copyright holder (e.g. TV excerpts)
    • demonetized videos will still have ads (at least for people without ad blockers)
    • videos are used for machine learning without credit to authors or financial compensation (especially without consent when it’s not the copyright holder uploading them)
