(not defending Google here) I believe that YT costs money to operate. So when I use it without watching ads (which is exactly what I do), I kinda cheat a few cents from them per day/month/year. Also, having built IOS apps in the past: I love the idea that people use them I hate the idea that people use them without paying for them

> I kinda cheat a few cents from them per day/month/year You certainly do not. There is a very simple and legally-recognised way to recuperate costs associated with providing a service and that is to charge money for the service. Youtube is very happy to give you content for free; you're cheating nobody. Or do you think you're cheating if you watch the ads but don't buy any of the products too? > I hate the idea that people use [my apps] without paying for them Do you charge money for them?
