Fairtube cancels Google Meeting!
The meeting planned for October 22 in Berlin between YouTube/Google and FairTube has been canceled. YouTube/Google repeatedly refused to allow Jörg Sprave, founder of the Youtubers Union, or any other YouTube Creator, to be present at the meeting. As a result, IG Metall announced on October 18 its decision not to participate either.
