  • There are 100s of legitimate things about Google to complain about

    But you’re not. You’ve made several comments on this post criticizing the people who 1. want control over their own devices and 2. are sick of ads being forced into every aspect of their lives.

    And I happen to think that a company throwing such an entitled fit over money, when they are making an immoral amount of profit that is increasing YoY, is super relevant when discussing the profitability of one of their services.

    YouTube doesn’t owe you cause they made profit

    Pretty sure I didn’t say they did.

    you’ve been able to still bypass their ads for this long, and so now users are complaining that they were able to circumvent something easier in the past?

    People always complain when their convenience is removed from them. Welcome to the human condition.

    Thin-skinned Nazis don’t like being called Nazis for liking other Nazi content.

    A few weeks ago, X’s director of engineering, Haofei Wang, said the upcoming change is meant to protect users’ public image — because “many people feel discouraged” to like “edgy” content.
