    That’s a fig leaf. US courts might agree with that argument, but European courts will see that it all is monopolistic practices to support their ad business. YouTube itself can’t survive market dominance without it’s preferential deals with it’s parent company’s hosting and ads. Ask viemo how using cloud hosting to serve video and third party ads works out. It would be suicidal. The truth is they ALREADY should be broken up.

      Google likely will be one of the last ones to do it (exactly so it will be hard to to put them in court). I already see Microsoft (surprise!) do this and asking to use Chrome or Edge.
