A database of every YT user then x-referencing them with public services (fb/ig/twitter). Build shadow profiles, sell db to highest bidder.
Or just plain ole pwning them. Most users still tend to use the same password across different services, not use 2FA, and involved in at least 1 high profile leak (I know I’m in at least a dozen so far per haveibeenpwned).
Occasionally you get the victim that uses that same password for their e-mail service and that can allow you to bypass e-mail 2FA if enabled. Even better if the account is used for social SSO (ie, Google, Facebook, Twitter). Then you have access to a treasure trove of services; or just delete them for lulz
