> steer clear of things that look like entitlement
How is wanting to know why you got pulled entitlement? For example, Justin Rabbit claims that he had no "strikes" against him, but nobody would tell him why his channel was being removed. It's not entitlement, it's just wanting to understand what went wrong maybe so he could fix it, or not do it next time, or whatever.

- psyc 8y agoThe word 'entitled' is loaded, and tends to derail these discussions. They want an explanation. To reduce their financial uncertainty. I don't know why every discussion needs to veer straight to legal policy and human rights. We're talking about 'good business' which I hope is still a thing.

Google have been impossible to reach when they decided you were bad for their business and this cut you off from their services since the beginning of their company. So have most companies you interact with. Yet these companies are doing better than fine. They are doing extremely well. We live in a world where great content services such as GitHub are bleeding money and I think you should keep that in mind when you talk about what is “good business”. I understand the feeling of unfairness, but if you zoom out to the bigger picture, then it often doesn’t matter that much. YouTube is the one of the few profitable content hosting networks of a massive scale. Maybe part of the reason they are profitable is because they don’t waste too many resources on people who aren’t making them money?
