    I’d rather Youtube and Google itself be split up under anti-trust laws. I don’t want them to exist.

    I’d rather people build smaller video websites for niche subjects so the internet is decentralized to the extent it was when it first started.

        Actually they are, because Google controls 90% of the internet, most cell phones while Apple controls the rest and does the same, meaning we consumers don’t get a choice.

        We’re just slaves.

          Google doesn’t control shit, and you’re referring to the web, not the internet. Nobody forces you to use YouTube, Maps or their search engine. The websites you visit choose to incorporate Google analytics and ads, which you can easily block if you feel enslaved in that sense.
