    Capitalism is supposed to give consumers choice. It could help if consumers used a greater variety of video sites, eg. Dailymotion or that weird chinese thing BiliBili. If they keep focusing on Youtube, despite all that bullshit, they are basically begging for more bullshit.

      You have a choice. Use their service with the shitty ads or find something else to do.

      It sucks, but that’s what you’ve got.

      Nah that’s just propaganda, capitalism is supposed to be efficient and make profits, but tends towards monopolies over time.
      User choice comes ONLY from regulation preventing monopolies and dishonest practices.
