Another great article from 404 Media highlighting the power that the tech giants have amassed over how how we use the internet.

This brings me, I think, to the elephant in the room, which is the fact that Google has its hands on quite literally every aspect of this entire saga as a vertically integrated adtech giant.

This extreme power over the adtech and online advertising ecosystem is one of the subjects of an FTC antitrust suit against Google.

Stop using Google’s products and continue using adblockers. Don’t come back at me with excuses. Otherwise, don’t complain.

The real problem with any other video service is that YT has a HUGE advantage of WAY more content. I wish it weren’t that way but it is.

So they will continue to dominate until similar vast content can be created elsewhere.

Funny!

Boom chicka wow wow….…Hey baby. Let me show you how to torque your nuts deep down inside my motor…Guitar solo…rocket launch video…

It would be interesting if PornHub started paying people for non-porn content. Because of their high traffic I assume they might be able to compete with YT…someday. It would be fun for them to try.
