    Ads are going to pay for it either way.

      Do you actually know that? I would bet that the cost of hosting the damn near infinite amount of content on YouTube would probably actually outweigh the amount they make on ads. At least if every other platform is to go off of.

        It absolutely costs a lot. Google also has a borderline monopoly for online advertising.

        That’s on top of absolutely harvesting your data and selling it as well. You’re acting like Google is a non-profit or some shit. They’re a giant corporation that doesnt give a shit about you.

        I say this as someone with a google phone and generally likes Google products. But you’ve got to take a step back and realize what they are.
