That’s an interesting view on “entitlement.” How about, the reason YouTube is where it is today is because of the content creators since its birth. Without quality content it wouldnt be where it is today. YouTube grew because a large chunk of its early content has copyright infringement and other sorts of material which would be deemed “offensive” by its current standards.

So I would hope that given its history, YouTube would try to fight for the content creators as opposed to fighting for its ad partners.
