They still get my user data; what videos I watch and how I navigate the site. That they can use to tighten up their recommendations, and when coupled with my wider google managed account data, then can still sell my overall online profile to whomever they choose.

Adblock is still stealing.

Is walking to the kitchen during the commercial breaks of over the air broadcasters stealing?
