    You fuckers won’t even pay for yt, and screech every time you see an add. What about any of that screams loyal community?

      If they’re doing better than ever, then why are they trying to constantly hack through my ad blocker now in a desperate attempt to show me an ad one way or another? I’m always gonna be one step ahead. They lost the game before they started. But they still won’t give up for some reason. That’s a lot of resources for a company to spend on someone that will never give a shit and keep blocking the ads.

        Full market saturation. They aren’t getting new customers, especially from that ad blocking I won’t pay for shit crowd. They’ll probably pull at least a few customers up a tier, and they’ll reduce compute costs booting the babies who won’t pay or watch ads.

        It’s just common sense business. That’s how you make money.

              [X] press to doubt.

              You shitpost on the internet acting like you and Google are buddies and you’re ok with your data being collected because you “understand how to make money and find value in youtube.”

              I’ll access all the same content and not be ttracked. Luckily chumps like you will keep on clicking those ads and it’ll be too much of a headache stopping people like me from blocking them.

                    Yup. Thatsthepoint.jpg. See what you did there? You don’t find value, you don’t want to pay, and you stopped. Imagine that. Instead of bitching to the void incessantly you summoned up some will power and stopped using the service.

          booting the babies who won’t pay or watch ads

          There are two ways that would happen. One is with IP bans, and even then, there are still ways around it. And if they start doing that, they’ll start to cut off legitimate users with dynamic IP addresses that change often. The other is by dropping ad supported services completely and moving to a fully paid model. And I doubt they have enough people who give enough of a shit to start giving YouTube actual money for the bullshit that’s on there.

          Like I said, they lost the game before they started. They will never shake off the freeloaders without seriously kneecapping their company.

            Posted on a forum thread bitching about how folks are not going to use the service. The delusional logic here is way to high.

            I think they are doing just fine booting the freeloaders. Even if they push you all to steal via piped that basically a free cache. Mission accomplished.
