YouTube might terminate your access if not profitable for Google

> Terminations by YouTube for Service Changes > > YouTube may terminate your access, or your Google account’s access to all or part of the Service if YouTube believes, in its sole discretion, that provision of the Service to you is no longer commercially viable.

Adblockers.

Well the current ToS say:

> YouTube reserves the right to discontinue any aspect of the Service at any time.

So this, the notification, and the ability to appeal seem like significant improvements.

As much as I dislike this, they are a business. Running servers and streams is not free.

I would peg this language as intended to make it clear that they can shut down e.g. Alex Jones for no other reason than that he's Alex Jones and some other people don't like him.
