> After being hit with the claim, Baker's upload became demonetized, meaning the YouTuber could not make any money off of it. The claim also blocked the ability to embed the video on third-party websites. In addition, the YouTube video was given limited visibility, including being blocked from view entirely in certain countries.
The first several days after a video is released is when creators get the most views (and thus the most money). It might've been only blocked for a day, but it was one of the most critical days. But good news! It was unblocked.
- goda90 3y agoI wonder if anyone could successfully sue YouTube for lost revenue over a wrongful demonetization.
- MaxikCZ 3y agoProlly can, and they prolly settle, but good luck with your random ban incoming in 2 weeks for something totaly unrelated.

No chance, the YouTube terms give them huge carte blanche to not pay out for any reason. You could maybe sue Disney but the result would be so small it would cost you a lot, lot more to hire a lawyer to do so.
- PoignardAzur 3y ago> The first several days after a video is released is when creators get the most views. Yeah. It wouldn't be too bad in other cases that just uploaded Steamboat Willie as-is as a statement, but in this case Baker actually did his own parody dub, so it's especially egregious.
