> Who made YouTube judge and jury?

Non-sequitor. YT does not need the power of a court decision to take this action. It's basically the same question of "Who made YouTube President"; it's irrelevant.

> Let's say, for the sake of argument, YouTube demonitized all Irish because they unilaterally decided they're all plonkers and they're a private company and they can do what they want. Because that's the level of absurdity here.

I mean YT could decide that your country isn't eligible for YT depending on local laws and block content. Which they do.
