Hai Mark!
It’s not the act of embedding videos that matters here, it’s the viewing of embedded videos. YouTube makes a lot of money from analytics around those views — it’s a massive market and a key part of their revenue. Pretending otherwise is like saying steak doesn’t come from cows. Do you guys really think YouTube is hand picking though 20 million video uploads per day? No, this is automated and 'soft flagging' is one of the automations.
