I see a lot of comments suggesting YouTube is a large & monopolistic enough platform that they have to be held to a different standard than a private company, more like a public utility. YouTube is a private company, and they're hosting exabytes of video content for free. You don't need to pay (with money) to upload terabytes of video and have it streamed to millions of people. Just 20 years ago that would have been unimaginable. Even today I think it's taken for granted a little too much. If YouTube did what we want, I reckon they'd be out of business pretty fast as they get overrun with the kind of content they currently don't allow.
