[854.50 --> 856.18] Particularly for Canadians, I think.
[856.30 --> 859.22] The truth of the matter is that you don't really have the option to buy Canadians.
[859.22 --> 860.34] Yeah, we don't make enough stuff.
[860.40 --> 861.44] Like, if I wanted to...
[861.44 --> 865.62] If I wanted all of my personal grooming products to be made in Canada...
[865.62 --> 865.84] Nope.
[866.78 --> 867.52] Good luck.
[868.04 --> 868.26] Yeah.
[868.34 --> 869.80] Like, I could probably find some stuff.
[870.02 --> 873.10] I'm sure you'd be able to find, especially, some beard-based things.
[873.24 --> 875.80] Oh, I'm sure I'd be able to find some Canadian beard care products.
[875.86 --> 877.86] Not that that would be a major concern for me.
[877.86 --> 879.86] Since this is about as much of a beard as I can grow.
[879.96 --> 881.02] But thank you for bringing it up.
[881.24 --> 884.46] The only reason why I said that is, like, around the world...
[884.46 --> 884.64] Yeah.
[884.74 --> 888.32] There's a lot of, like, small homebrew kind of companies that do beard stuff.
[888.46 --> 889.80] Because you can make your own beard oil.
[889.80 --> 890.36] Yeah, yeah, sure.
[890.44 --> 890.60] Whatever.
[890.76 --> 891.08] Backtrack.
[891.10 --> 892.86] Anyways, it's...
[893.42 --> 896.10] Yeah, it's not nearly as much of a thing in North America.
[896.36 --> 902.50] But I could see how current administration in the U.S. might be pushing to make it more so.
[902.62 --> 902.78] Sure.
[902.96 --> 907.84] And would be pushing against, especially, companies that have ties to the governments of other people.
[907.86 --> 908.36] Yeah.
[908.36 --> 911.26] That are being purchased in a nationalistic sense from coming more into America.
[911.26 --> 917.78] Where there's no commitment, you know, up front to say, okay, yeah, we're going to bring X number of jobs into the United States.
[917.78 --> 920.26] Because the potential here...
[920.26 --> 921.46] And again, we don't know...
[921.46 --> 925.60] Okay, so we don't know what involvement, if any, the U.S. government has already had in the negotiations.
[925.60 --> 926.20] Not sure.
[926.52 --> 937.98] But if while we were to come to the table with the U.S. government and say, okay, yeah, like, we're committing to assembling some percentage of our devices that we sell within the United States in the U.S.
[937.98 --> 943.48] If they were going to come and make some kind of a deal, then I suspect it would be more likely.
[943.48 --> 952.94] But right now, I guess I can't think of a great reason for them to be gung-ho about this.
[952.94 --> 954.08] Also, this part.
[955.08 --> 963.24] Senators and House members are encouraging AT&T to ditch any potential ties to work with Huawei on standards for its 5G network.
[963.38 --> 965.56] Again, that's them trying to get into the back end.
[965.76 --> 965.90] Yep.
[965.90 --> 969.10] And I'm super not surprised that that's not a thing.
[969.68 --> 971.40] Max just quietly walks off stage.
[971.94 --> 974.04] I'm super not surprised that that's not a thing.
[974.22 --> 979.92] Because of ties to the idea of their back end being tapped by the Chinese government.
[980.14 --> 984.10] So, to be very clear, you know, we...
[984.10 --> 985.14] Allegedly.
[985.36 --> 988.88] Yeah, like, we don't know what is or isn't happening.
[989.04 --> 990.52] All we know is what's going on.
[990.58 --> 992.52] We know the U.S. government is uncomfortable with it.
[992.52 --> 996.22] We know Huawei is super unimpressed with what's going on.
[996.74 --> 998.76] And presumably, AT&T would be as well.
[998.84 --> 1002.64] Because by most accounts, they make really good devices.
[1003.06 --> 1011.22] It's just not necessarily affordable if you rely on contract subsidies in order to buy your phone.
[1011.42 --> 1012.66] And it won't be competitive.
[1012.66 --> 1016.80] When you can walk in and buy an iPhone for $200.
[1017.92 --> 1018.24] Yeah.
[1018.52 --> 1018.96] Yeah, yeah.
[1018.98 --> 1019.54] Quote, unquote.
[1019.64 --> 1019.74] Yeah.
[1020.58 --> 1023.16] Versus a Huawei device for $800.
[1024.02 --> 1025.46] Because you have to buy the whole thing up front.
[1025.62 --> 1025.76] Yeah.
[1026.88 --> 1027.42] All right.
[1027.50 --> 1030.48] Why don't we jump right into the changes to the YouTube Partner Program here.
[1030.56 --> 1032.36] This was posted by HeyYo on the forum.
[1032.48 --> 1035.98] The original article is actually straight from the YouTube blog.
[1036.84 --> 1040.30] So this is a pretty big deal.
[1040.36 --> 1046.20] Do we want to do kind of a short recap of some of the other changes that YouTube has made towards creators this year?
[1046.54 --> 1047.02] Sure.
[1047.42 --> 1050.94] So the biggest one is referred to as the adpocalypse.
[1051.14 --> 1052.84] And there have actually been a couple of different stages.
[1053.10 --> 1053.30] Yeah.
[1053.52 --> 1056.66] This, I think, is considered by the community to be wave three.
[1057.48 --> 1057.92] Oh, okay.
[1058.14 --> 1059.76] I think something along those lines.
[1060.02 --> 1060.36] I don't.
[1061.72 --> 1062.04] Okay.
[1062.10 --> 1062.30] Anyway.
[1062.30 --> 1063.16] I wouldn't entirely agree with that.
[1063.16 --> 1065.92] There's been, okay, I saw it referred to as that.
[1065.92 --> 1067.10] Whatever the community says.
[1067.18 --> 1067.86] Would you call it two?
[1068.84 --> 1070.38] I could maybe bundle this in.
[1070.44 --> 1071.76] I think it's kind of a separate thing.
[1071.96 --> 1072.18] Yeah.
[1072.36 --> 1072.58] Okay.
[1073.00 --> 1077.86] The point is that the adpocalypse is sort of used as a generic term to describe changes.
[1078.36 --> 1078.98] Too many things.
[1079.08 --> 1086.50] Google, or through YouTube, has made fundamental changes to the way that content creators monetize on the YouTube platform.
[1086.50 --> 1109.28] And so some examples have been pulling monetization from potentially touchy or controversial subjects, even if the video in question is a mature conversation about said controversial topic and contains, you know, no community guideline infringing content.
[1109.28 --> 1115.28] Unless you're a news, a TV news organization.
[1115.94 --> 1126.28] So that's been another, you know, problem with this whole controversy is that there seem to be channels that are getting their videos pulled just for having knife in the metadata.
[1126.66 --> 1126.80] Yeah.
[1126.80 --> 1132.40] Or, you know, like a perfect example was when we had the monetization pulled from an unboxing of the Razer Blade.
[1132.80 --> 1133.90] Or the Switch Blade.
[1133.96 --> 1134.74] Switch Blade interface.
[1134.86 --> 1135.48] That was the issue.
[1135.92 --> 1139.02] So because it had that keyword in it, it got the monetization pulled.
[1139.02 --> 1148.52] So it seems like some channels are very susceptible to this, while some mainstream channels, like I believe, it's Late Show with Colbert, right?
[1148.84 --> 1154.04] I believe Colbert has been pointed at as someone who has had controversial topics in the titles.

[854.50 --> 856.18] Particularly for Canadians, I think.

[856.30 --> 859.22] The truth of the matter is that you don't really have the option to buy Canadians.

[859.22 --> 860.34] Yeah, we don't make enough stuff.

[1017.92 --> 1018.24] Yeah.
