Yeah, but they aren't making nearly the amount of money on the video as they would with the ads, and no where near enough to compensate the creators beyond free hosting.

You can still publish demonetized content, just don't expect to make money from it on YouTube.

They use that data to sell ads at you across the entire internet. Google is making plenty of cash off those “demonitized” videos.
