YouTube reportedly now injects ads directly into video streams to make it more difficult for ad blockers to block advertisements.

Like most other (publicly traded) companies, Google is a horrible piece of shit. They are only interested in increasing relatively short term profits to facilitate big paydays for executives and pumping the stock price like Austin Powers’ Swedish penis pump (that’s not mine, I would never use that, where’s the instruction manual). Apparently companies like this lack the foresight to see that their long term survival requires more than just the apathy of a large customer base. Think of them as the Comcast of next week. They will only stop if a) they are heavily regulated or b) alternative services force them to compete on actual competency rather than just max ads per minute. Google hasn’t run a good service in years in my opinion, and they should feel fucking ashamed of themselves.
TLDR: we admaxxing now. Godspeed to the devs of ublock etc, can’t wait to see what the boffins over there come up with next. If only Google put more of their time into running a good service and less into working out how to advertise vapes to children. Fuck sundar prichai and his stupid fucking smug face.
They don’t need to be regulated they just need competition
I think something Activity pub could do the trick (not peertube)
Bro they 100% need to be fucking shut down at this point never mind regulated
That would be actually terrible. The government shouldn’t be able to shutdown a billion dollar company. That’s how authoritarian governments work not democracies
You are absolutely right. They need to be split up in six different pieces instead, thereby forcing them to compete. That’s what functioning democracies do to companies that are so dominant they are de facto monopolies and thereby making any real competition virtually impossible. The US isn’t a functioning democracy anymore so don’t you worry little one, It’s not gonna happen to any of the mega-conglomerates you have such a special bond with.
Governments should absolutely shut down companies who poison the environment. It’s almost like the word govern is in the word. You corpo bootlicking brain washed capitalist cuck.
