> They want your ONLY source of income to be Youtube. I’m not sure. They want influencers to make profit using their platform, so they want to make them rich. On the viewcount, a skipped sponsor still looks like a view. No sponsor is going to look at the proportion of watching each part of the video, they just care about the view counter. What Youtube may want, though, is for paying customers to be able to skip ads. “If you pay you should have no ads”. | ||
