Luckily no, I'm just a random guy that uploads an occasional video for friends to laugh it.
But I've done some research into the matter and monetization doesn't play that big of a role if copyright holder wants to be a real douchebag about their "intellectual property" being "stolen". Point and case Sega, who had people's accounts banned regardless of whether the video was monetized or not.
That's just a quick thing. Other game companies and record labels have done the same whether the video was making any money off it or not. I know someone who got his youtube account banned because some random band was doing a cover of a popular song in the background of his wedding video. That... just angers the hell out of me.
