Youtube dropping monetization for storm videos (not April Fool's)

[Dan Robinson]

Monetization re-enabled as of an hour ago after appealing to the @TeamYouTube Twitter account with lots of support from fellow #wxtwitterers.

Glad to help Dan. And so glad they re-monetized it so quickly. That was less than 24 hours, wasn't it?

Well, the saga continues. My channel was just completely dropped from the monetization program for "reused content", which is normally the flag for stolen videos. These type of mistakes have been happening to others, but it looks like I have a long road ahead to resolve this based on experiences from others.

Ouch, I heard that takes about two months to fix and even then once on that list, it does happen again.

Same thing happened to James Reynolds a couple of days after my scare. Appealing to @TeamYoutube on Twitter fixed both of us in 24 hours, thankfully!
