Youtube can just set the conditions with their market share. Content creators draw the attention they sell to advertisers. They made the mistake that they did comply and now get overwhelmed with further demands. They could have just had a "take it or leave it" strategy and I am very sure advertisers would just have continued to pay, because it benefits them too. Youtube set the precedent for advertisers demanding editorial control on content, it is purely on their misbehavior we have this problem. Because now advertisers can be made responsible where their ads are shown and what is seen next to them.
