Yeah, I could see them demanding adding ads to the videos / pages. YouTube is a business and expecting them to host and stream videos worldwide for free is unrealistic. This seems like they would have the right to run ads anyway so I'm not sure why they would need to force them to select that option. (I can also see blenders desire to not have ads but I don't think youtube is at fault for not wanting to actively wanting to lose money on their videos. If that is really the problem it might be interesting to have youtube open a paid option for the cretors to pay for the service and not have any ads / user tracking stuff.)
