It's what they always should have done anyway. I'm not so entitled that I think I should get content delivered absolutely free, but I am entitled enough to sandbox and restrict how many discrete domains my browser windows will talk to.

Your data is much more valuable than the 13/currency per month. Which btw, if you pay, the do not stop collecting sharing and monetizing on your data.

Exactly I don't think we're in disagreement. I'm not making a pro-youtube statement here. I just accept that it exists, as they need to accept that I have full control over my hardware. It's up to them to make their business model work for them in that environment, not me.

It's conflict theory.
