Are these situations really the same thing?

  It’s a symptom of the same monetization problem (ie. greed).

  Not quite - youtube is not an emergency service, so should not be expected to act like an emergency service. However, the european cookie law says that opting-out should be as simple as opting in, and so the news website should be expected to have a one-click opt-out :P

    Yes, we should expect the legal minimum from all entities! Especially the wealthy ones!

  Yep. If you're going down the road of suggesting a private tech company that has nothing to do with medical health should be coerced into providing ad-free medical videos... well then it's perfectly reasonable to point the finger at a news site throwing ads at us. In fact, why can't I get to a CPR video through ed.nl???? They ought to be providing me up to the minute health streaming CPR videos just in case I go in to sudden cardiac arrest.
