    There isn’t any alternative for either content creators or consumers so of course people can’t just stop using it. But that doesn’t mean everyone should just accept anything from them. These kinds of things definitely hurt both the YouTube and Google brands and there definitely are Google products that you can stop using and avoiding to give money to YouTube.
