An account is required only to

Youtube didn't create that news and entertainment, the content creators did.

YouTube's algorithms may have misidentified her as a child. Given their problems with child-directed content, the algorithms may be overly trigger-happy upon detecting the combination of child plus horror.

Something like that. Titles with "horror stories" triggered something, and she had to edit, especially when she talks about murders, suicides, cannibalism, aliens, and all the funny stories used in a movie, e.g. American Horror Stories, and the funny was ... she also had to edit a video talking about Charlie's Angels, why?!? Because she usually dresses "a crown of eyeballs over her head", with the background color polarization that "tends to be red", and this is wrongly perceived by the AI as "dangerous" content(1)
edit:
(1) AI bugged? or intentionally, as an excuse for demonetizing the video? who knows ...

Youtube allows Youtubers (content creators) to show their content. I meant. And (if I have understood it correctly) it also gives direct (1) indirect (2) ways to make business on this.
In the end, it's not perfect, but it doesn't look so bad :-//
(1) Youtube pays an average of 50 cent per 1000 visualizations
(2) Youtube allows affiliations; you post a video, you link Amazon's products in the "infobox" section of your video, visitors click on the link and buy stuff on Amazon, and Amazon pays you. Youtube allows you to do that without asking you a penny.
