Just yesterday they stopped allowing me to see home page and recommendations unless I turn on watch history, which I am not doing ever. So they can keep forcing my hand and see how far it goes. If anything am stubborn enough to enjoy this kind of petty behavior from major players. They keep thinking “oh they will just do what we ask them to”, but I’ll do the opposite out of spite. I’ll just use !videos or similar communities to find my recommendations until the day comes where I stop using it completely. I quit Facebook this way, quit Reddit and Twitter, quit WhatsApp. Keep at it guys, let’s see who’s more stubborn.
I’ll take some of that action. There needs to be some sort of medical term for the reaction that adverts inspire in me. At this point, it’s pathological. It’s interesting to contrast YouTube’s original form with the abomination it has become today. Almost as if corporations wait patiently while they achieve market dominance before they come out with absurd and Orwellian ethical statements about ‘breaking rules’. Before that it was a big house, come on in and enjoy the cornucopia. No, Google, we will never stop blocking your poison. All we want is the service.

I don’t think they care about the small handful of people who will stop watching YouTube over this, to be honest.
That is fine by me! But I doubt the number will be so small. Still I don’t care how many. Am not selling my data becauseo others are. -
