MODERATORS
Google is literally an ISP. They provide my internet service.
Well, fair. But even in that case, they have every right to degrade your YouTube experience, as owners of YouTube. As ISP (I mean, assuming NN was still a thing) they couldn't selectively degrade traffic, but YouTube has no obligation to you under net neutrality.
