Would Youtubers be considered petit bourgeoisie since they own the means of production (a camera and an editing software) yet they still needs to sell the product of his labor to YouTube ads? (lemmygrad.ml)

There was this one 'free speech' youtuber/podcaster in my country who claimed he was a bourgeois because he owned the camera, the editor tools and the place where he filmed. He then proceeded to defend the creation of a nazi party and shared content doubting the integrity of the elections. He was demonetized and then banned from all social media, his videos were deleted and he fell into obscurity. It was only then that he learned that he did not own the means of production.
