It's so weird that YouTube is their second most profitable venture after adsense. It's like they thought, we have a virtual monopoly on internet ads, Internet video, and web browsers. Let's combine their power to make people watch non stop ads while tracking them worse than the CIA. Then, let's be very surprised when people don't like us and we get hit with antitrust lawsuits. Fuck Google.
Google went from don't be evil to fuck you all.
And all they would need to do is offer a YouTube ad free plan that's at a sensible price without any of the YouTube music crap included.
But no... They keep trying to shove the YouTube Premium bundle down our throats and no one wants it. We just want ad free.
They're not the least bit surprised. They did the math. The profit is more than the penalty.
Those fines are just the cost of doing business.
Guess we should switch to incarcerating members of the board if we want them to really feel it.
