Because Google has been monopolistic in their strategy to become the no.1 video platform and crushed alternatives.
This behaviour comes at a cost, pushing alternatives and now forcing adverts on everyone?
I can't do much to stop their monopolistic behavior but I can block adverts.
- nvm0n2 3y agoThe same guys who put patent-free video in everyone's browser have been "monopolistic"? Anyone can run a site like YouTube, Google isn't stopping them, and some people do. It's hard to compete with YT because they have built an enormous product at vast expense. To call it monopolistic you basically have to describe any kind of cross-subsidization as monopolistic.
