Sure, why not?
I literally don't care if this causes them to go bankrupt. If your business doesn't work without breaking the law, your business doesn't work, and we're not obligated as a society to form our laws to make your business work.
I mean seriously, if your local convenience store was letting people sling cocaine out the back because they couldn't make a profit selling candy and sandwiches, would you be like "Oh that's okay."? Obviously not. I'm not even for drug prohibition, but applying the laws we have fairly seems even more fundamental.
That said, fears that this would cause them to go bankrupt are likely overblown.
> Even if YT/Google/Meta could do this at scale, do you want them to have that power?
They already have that power. They can put whatever conditions they want on doing business with advertisers.
