Why do you expect Google (or any trillion dollar company) to care how good or bad the thumbs down or similar actions work? Google only cares about revenue and profits, for which it doesn't matter if the video is an educational one, a game being streamed or content designed to outrage people or spread hate. Did you watch the ad? Good. Google is happy. And google doesn't care.
"But I don't watch those clickbaity videos! Google's losing revenue on me!" Yeah well apparently not on 95 or 99% of the viewers apparently for them to continue acting like this :shrug:
Unless the incentives of Google and the viewers align (or regulation/competition forces Google), don't expect the thumbs down button to be more than a "Please Sir, I want some less" button-equivalent.
