It's like they think the only way to make money is to drown us in ads based off the telemetry they scoop up and we're entitled brats for wanting to have a say in how our data is harvested/used against us.

I mean, no matter what, you do have a say. You can just not use YouTube. Pretty easy, actually.

That won't prevent Google from scraping my data from every other website I use.
