  1. Very much this. This is why they push newer videos so much and ignore anything past a certain date. Just think about all of the 360p video from 10 years ago that never gets recommended yet would take up less bandwidth and therefore be cheaper to serve as well as be useful such as older repair videos.

  2. Absolutely. YouTube is making Billions in *Profit*, yet the creators get pennies on the dollar. None of their moves helps anyone but themselves.

  3. Agreed. Anonymity on the internet is a must for a more secure world. The people against that are evil.

  5. The day they decide to permanently prevent me from downloading will be the day I delete every YouTube bookmark I've got and go be more productive with my life. I still watch videos through the browser and watch the ads to support the creators, most of the time, but there are certain videos that you just have to save. Be they funny videos you have to share that might get removed for whatever reason or content that tyrannical dicks don't like. The ads just keep getting more annoying though. Where they used to be right up front and unobtrusive to the video, now they pop up in the middle of a damn sentence. And they already were deleting and shadowbanning my fucking comments, so fuck YouTube.

  6.  @Astravall  They already do. If you haven't realized it by now, there is a systematic attack on anything that attempts to be free, as in freedom. They are actively working to prevent user choice so that they can lock everyone in and use them like batteries, à la the Matrix.
