The YouTube Invalid Traffic bug is back in a big way and this time my revenue is down about 54%. I made less money in 2023 from YouTube than I made in 2022 - even with more subs, views, and watch time. Go figure. 
So, in this episode of Talk Techie To Me, I'm providing an update on the invalid traffic issue, sharing the growing list of affected YouTube Creators, and asking anyone who is a lawyer or journalist to please get in touch with me. We need all hands on deck. 
If you or someone you know has been hit by the YouTube invalid traffic bug, you can find the list here:

Does the YouTube invalid traffic bug run deeper than we thought? It turns out Google may be in breach of their own advertising policies and it’s landing them in hot water with their advertisers. But why does this matter and what's the connection to the invalid traffic message many creators have received? 
In this episode of Talk Techie To Me, I attempt to connect the dots. I provide an update on the invalid traffic bug that's decimating YouTube creators' ad revenue, plus I share my theory as to what I think is really going on behind the scenes.
