Yup. For context, YouTube/Google pulled off an utterly scummy one-two punch where they initially upped the minimum requirements to monetize videos with ads and removed that ability from anyone who didn't meet the new requirements, under the pretext that they couldn't check if smaller channels were suitable for advertising - and then readded ads to all those channels except with Google keeping 100% of the money.
