If you're watching YT and think you are not seeing ads, then you're being foiled.
>> So my data is being used, just for my benefit.
Apart from the word "just", I agree.

Any creator might be showing you sponsorships/product placements of course, and Google has no say in that.
- kreeben 5y agoWhen I say "you're being foiled" I'm not talking about product placements. I'm talking about how Google designs its sorting algorithm for me, on my personalized YT front page and how that assortment challenges me to become involved, enticed even, to view/buy certain things.
