Freedom allows VNs to give partners a higher revenue share so long there is a competing offer.
I used to think Freedom was shady too, everybody a few months ago were bashing them so hard. Then I got partnered with them and learned some of the stuff too, they really aren't crooks that they look to be. I'm not being biased as I am partnered with another network too, which I personally prefer more, but I think Freedom should be treated as a network just like any other one, in the matter of respect.Please list the sub-network using this verbiage. Freedom has had some pretty shady nonsense going on in the past, but I was under the impression that by this point they had toned it down a bit. There is no such thing as a partial managed partnership. Instant Monetization is still active only because YouTube hasn't officially rolled out the new affiliate review. So if a sub-network is using such misleading terminology, we need to be made aware of which sub-network(s) is/are doing this.

They were being bashed because of the bait and switch George pulled. The big marketing push for Freedom came right at the time the Affiliate/Managed controversy arrived while a lot of people were scared. George came out guns blazing saying that Freedom was the place to go for managed partnership. But that quietly changed after they signed thousands of channels and now they maintain only a small number of managed ones. Still pisses me off because it's the same garbage George did at TGN. Means he can't be trusted.
