I really don't think it's greed. Can't blame em for trying to win the cat/mouse game of adblocking. I'm sure it's not the end of the world, and new ways to circumvent this will show up.

IDK; I blame them.

YouTube has become part of the world's social infrastructure. In a way, it is the town square.

Frankly it should be publicly owned.

Okay. I can dig a publicly owned YouTube.

Are you willing to spend your tax dollars hosting flat earth content?

Far right? Thinly disguised racism?

It’s ironic: but at least by paying based on what is watched, you give money to those you consume.

We can pay for it by eating just a few of the rich.
