Tangential: Isn't this like a tip? Shouldn't all of it go to the content creator?
PS: I think it is a good initiative from Google so not criticizing the company at all (in this specific case). Just thought of the recent controversy about some of the food delivery companies taking a portion of the tips, and want to see whether you see this as analogical.

If I know google I’d bet it’s a lot closer to 2 cents than 2 dollars.

70% goes to the creator, 30% goes to Google (meaning that the YouTuber will get $1.40 from a $2.00 "applause")
