YouTube Demonetizes Jennifer Zeng

YouTube Defunded China Jennifer Zeng

YouTube demonetized Inconvenient Truths by Jennifer Zeng, a Chinese dissident and human rights activist, after she published a video titled Origin of the CCP Virus: The Missing Piece of the Puzzle. While YouTube did not give Zeng a specifc reason or explanation (rather just a one sentence notification on her channel’s dashboard that said the channel is no longer eligible for monetization), she probably violated YouTube’s COVID-19 policies of not disagreeing with the WHO.

No reason was given. Just a sentence suddendly appearing on the backend of my channel
