Watching a Youtube video here and there is not an addiction. Google has a monopoly in the area. I've switched from Chrome to Firefox, and use both Google and Yandex search, but I can't really switch away from Gmail, and if I want to watch e.g. a music video or some educational clip or interview, etc. etc. 99.9% of the time Youtube is the only place where I can do that.

I guess where you're coming from is the annoyance with the endless complaining about Twitter and reddit. But those two, while definitely unhealthily large and living off an addicted userbase, are still not in a position as monopolistic and as unavoidable as Youtube's.
