Patricior Robles says, “YouTube is facing a backlash after popular content creators claimed that the platform is failing to monetize their videos.

The row focuses on YouTube’s Advertiser-Friendly Content Guidelines, which users claim they were not told about and that they feel are ambiguous.

As Gizmodo’s Bryan Menegus explained, the Advertiser-Friendly Content Guidelines, which describe “content that is considered inappropriate for advertising,” have been in place for some time.

But a change to the way Google notifies content creators about videos that run afoul of them has led some to believe that Google is enforcing new rules they weren’t informed about.

Some took to YouTube to complain, and a #YouTubeIsOverParty trending topic emerged on Twitter“.

Are online advertisers wising up about content quality?
