That's a fair criticism. I personally don't care about it because I gave up on the idea of having any privacy ages ago but I get that people may not be happy with that.

If I were to play devil's advocate, I can say that the data they collect is important for serving you the right videos but let's be real here, Google definitely uses it to serve you ads everywhere else
