> what percentage of time goes into it Who would verify the amount of time spent by private individuals recording videos using their own equipment in their own homes? > what percentage of total income comes from it Why would that matter? It seems odd that YouTube's employer status would depend on whether or not the would-be employee has other sources of income. >other hard measures like that This doesn't seem like a realistic "evolution" of employer status. I'm not saying the definition won't ever evolve but it just doesn't seem practical that a private business which offers a free service to consumers would suddenly become an employer of those consumers based on how they use the service. I'll also add that turning YouTube into an employer would have problematic consequences for creators, e.g. as an employer, YouTube would be in a position to make editorial demands of creators which would put them right back where they started (create advertiser friendly videos or you don't get paid). |
