Everyone seems to forget one aspect... Google is constantly eating up your data, selling it to advertising companies and the what not. Now, last time I checked, Google owned YouTube. So, in my personal opinion, Google can have my data in exchange for no ads. Don't get me wrong, i'll still support my favorite creators through Patreon and all that... but screw google. I'm not buying premium when I'm forced to because of their greed.
Google does not sell data to their competitors dipshit
Yeah, sure. Next you're going to tell me all the countries in the world have settled their differences and the world is at peace. Bullshit bud, they without a doubt sell your personal info. "If a product is free, you're the product".
Dipshit.
Seriously think about it for a second. Why would they put themselves in a huge competitive disadvantage by not being the ones with the data? Any data Google collects for the most part is housed by them and they expose only a very, very tiny fraction to ad partners.
