Or in other words “Megacorp reminds you that it can and will decide to pocket cut your income based on the court of public opinion”.
This is not a discussion about the allegations against him, this is about the fact that Google have decided to pocket the income they would otherwise be giving him (not taking down the videos, oh no, they’re probably bringing in even more ad revenue now!) without any convictions or similar. Not that Google is an employer (I’m sure they consider payments they make to video uploaders to be some kind of generous untaxable gift), but should an employer have the power to take away a source of income based on allegations, no matter how heinous?
Edit: seems they’re actually not putting ads on his videos at all now, which was a surprise to me

Incognito works for this use case (and basically only such use cases)
