In a glorious plot twist for potty-mouthed content creators, YouTube now allows videos with strong profanity like 'fuck' in the first seven seconds to get full monetization! As YouTube's head of monetization policy experience Conor Kavanagh explains, this shift happened because 'advertisers expected ads on YouTube to have distance between profanity and the ad,' but now 'those expectations have changed.' ProZD summed it up perfectly: 'Itâs about fucking time.' Just remember, you still have to 'pick and choose your fucks carefully,' because bursting profanity limit still gets the corporate scolding. Blessings abound!
