I don't know, it feels like your thinking could be used to justify absolutely any conspiracy theory no matter how nuts. It's obviously totally fair to be skeptical about any statement anybody makes. Anything could be a lie. But this isn't the OP being skeptical about a claim YouTube made. It's the OP making an assumption about what was being done based just on a misleading headline, and then you posting that it's a legitimate concern because YouTube could be lying about the totally different thing they're doing.
