Because you aren’t an individual to them, you’re a statistic providing them with valuable market research on how their service is used.

“People that watch this collection of video classifications are more likely to watch videos who’s thumbnails have these characteristics. Only 1% of them use ad blocking so we can improve our ad presentation rate if we present more videos with these thumbnails to this group.”
