Or (being devil’s advocate here): just don’t be a fucking slut. Have like 3 partners and have ypur website pick the best offer dynamically, it’s not that hard. In the end they all use AdSense, so they don’t even need to give data to the other 873 or even Google itself - as you said ads don’t have to be targeted. Although it’s not as if it won’t get there anyway.
Not neccessarily. A spun off YouTube would still have YouTube premium and ad revenue. They could also sell user data to 3rd parties (I doubt Google currently does it on a large since it’s in their interest to have a better ad network than its competitiors). A move similar to Reddit’s with their API and exclusive search agreement or agreements to feed certain videos to AI would both fetch a higher price and upset the quality less since the vast majorty of videos watched are found through YouTube itself.
Sorry to bother you, but how do you check/block scripts? Personally I use Firefox with uBO and Noscript, but noscript seems pretty rudimentary since it only lets you block domains. Me not knowing what the various per-domain toggles mean doesn’t help either.
