Google bought them out because of the potential for ad revenue

Clearly they are rich af from ads

they made shit public cuz lawsuit

we dont know shit about it today

but back then yeah we have some data

If creators like Pewdiepie can be multi millionaires then you know the company is rich af

that's govt money

You know they take most of the revenue by far

How is it gov't money

google was started with it

History lesson

and they do contracts for it

Don't tell me to Google it

Yeah so they use ads

Most videos don't get ads

Most viewers then don't contribute to ads

didnt they spent most of last year restricting what videos would get ads?

Yes

@Blackhawk342 ya that's what i was talking about they are looking to increase profit.

they are losing money cuz of the type of system

Because companies advertising wanted to seem PC

google tv here we come

then google will turn into comcast 2.0

No, they're losing money because of PC culture

and our grandkids will hate it

@Blackhawk342 already here my friend. try searching "black lives matter Texas shooting"

you see any independents?

However I seriously doubt they are not making a fat profit

google is already worse than comcast..

they're just making it in other ways most likely

What other ways

google has algos and is manipluating already

comcast r retards

Investment from people who want to control what we see

Perhaps

Maybe that is why they censor so hars

Pay enough and a creator gets deplatformed

not that comcast is dumb. just they dont have google's power..

google the almighty lord
