You call it a war, I'm not sure YouTube thinks of it that way.
YouTube revenue was 29.2 billion dollars in 2022. On the other side you have a couple guys complaining about Reddit users.
Sure, a few tech-savy folk install ad-blockers, and Google keeps the space dynamic enough to avoid it getting serious traction. But it's less a "war" and more of a minor irritation.
Winning isn't making ad-blocking go away, winning is 29.2 billion $. The entitled user base will do the rest.
- hotnfresh 3y agoI didn’t pick the term “war” for this discussion. I was following suit.
- chii 3y agoYou quoted a revenue number, but revenue is irrelevant. Profit is. YouTube for the longest time does not turn a profit. Google has never revealed any YouTube profit since the acquisition. I imagine they don't because it is negative. Likely propped up afloat by YouTube data that feeds into Google's other ad businesses.
