YouTube doesn’t sell user data, the data is for targeting ads.

You realize Google owns YouTube, right? 😆

Google owns YouTube and the AdSense advertising network. They don’t need to sell the data to advertisers because they are the advertiser. It’s more valuable for them to just hoard that for forever and use it for ad targeting.
