As much as I'm against corporate power in general, and worried about Google in particular : I very much doubt that this is an editorial move from youtubr: it seems much more likely that this is automated monetization machinery run amok.
I mean, we're talking about the company that's drowning its users in chat applications/protocols.
That said, the i agree that archive.org or Wikimedia might be good ways to publish. Still, much like blender's other "big projects" (make film, make game etc) - this move potentially helps build out a working distributed video system.

- e12e 8y agoSure; a semi-automated monetization machinery run amok, then. But the fact that sales drones at Google are handed broken procedures and ordered to chase forced monitization at cross-purposes of certain prominent users - still doesn't mean there's any editorializing working against the Blender foundation in order to further sketchup. I'm sure Google management would be thrilled if they were able to organize half such a conspiracy to straighten out their own chat apps.
