- tradewinds 3y agoI do on YouTube before videos from CBC News. I actually don't on Google search results, but the search data you generate in the process of connecting with news sites can be used for a multitude of profitable uses-cases, including selling targeted ads elsewhere on the internet.

- philistine 3y agoThe fact you think YOU need to see ads next to search related to news DIRECTLY means you don't really understand Google's modus operandi. They make money by building a profile from your usage. And then selling that profile to advertisers. They make money by having news, because they can build a profile based on what you click and sell ads to those same websites you visit.
