The thing hes leaving out is that this guy is almost definitely making mid 6 figures a month.

The issue comes down to Google hosts a users video for free, with the expecation that they can serve advertisements to people who watch said video. By using this service, it strips google of that right while still using its resources. Google has every right to block services it doesnt like and you have every right not to use youtube.

This is very similar to the craigslist/padmapper issue in some ways.
