  I was being sarcastic about it, but I don’t think that warranted an insult. I’m just saying people shouldn’t be worked up just because he isn’t being paid anymore. He can still post videos. He hasn’t been banned. He’s also filthy rich, so this won’t really affect him. Sure, Google is doing it based on accusations (with good evidence), not a conviction, but it’s taking the most minor of actions that I would hardly call draconian overreach.

  Unless people think he deserves to be paid by Google, which I sure don’t since I don’t think anyone deserves that, there shouldn’t be an issue here.

    Ahhh, so you were trolling then. Then I rest my case.

      Sarcasm is not trolling. What nonsense.
