That's been the case for a while now. I have a couple of videos being monetized by the claimants as we speak, which I find amusing since they don't get that many hits anyway. It doesn't affect me as much since I'm not popular enough to make any meaningful money from monetiztion, and if I ever am I'm not against creating a patreon as a workaround.

They probably could have chose a much better hashtag, though.
