This brings the final cost of screening all video uploaded to YouTube at its current rate to $36,829,468,840 per year. Yes, that’s nearly $37 billion per year. That is a massive additional cost to expect from Google to cover a thorough analysis of all video being uploaded. And this excludes the immense backlog of video YouTube already hosts. This would require 199,584 judges to be hired as screeners.
