      ok, at the risk of being branded a fanboy and a bootlicker I’m going to play devil’s advocate and say that this option is probably checked by default and whoever posted it didn’t think about it because they were probably one of the employees taking orders

        Fair point, I thought about that too but if it were me and my reputation on the line, I’d make a main point of the video. Just as gamer nexus did.

        Making a vid about being less careless and then being careless.

        All that said, when I was posting vids, there was a full screen YouTube made me go through to set monitization and ad placement before proceeding to a separate screen for posting
