    YouTube is only one section of an entire corporation.

    It’s a corporation, not a charity. They don’t spend tens of billions per year out of good will.

    Ads were fine, the ads now are not fine.

    Ads were not making enough money to justify continued operation.

    They were successful when they were less intrusive, why do they need to do things this way and break up the videos when they have grown an empire on what was previously done?

    Because “what was previously done” is not sustainable.

      I simply disagree. Stats if YouTube show not just a small sustainable gain, but we are taking 4-5x their income from 10 years ago. https://mobilemarketingreads.com/youtube-revenue-and-usage-statistics-2020/

      What they’re doing with ads is annoying as shit and their right to do as it’s their business to run. It’s my right to run my browsers how I want. Also my right to filter traffic in and out of my network.

      Sorry man but YouTube ads can kiss the fattest part of my ass.
