You can’t just have advertisements for computer parts on a YouTube video about computers? Is that so inefficient that google really needs to just track you across websites as well? I doubt it. What you end up with are advertising blinders. You never see anything new or intriguing. Just more versions of stuff you already have because that’s what you clicked on.
Hell I probably would have bought some weird stuff from advertisements and might have kicked off some new hobbies if google just showed me ads for the stuff craftsmen use in their videos. Instead I get stupid android game ads that are nothing but annoying. If I trusted ads, I’d probably engage with the more.
Something like Youtube could not exist without pretty extensive advertising or direct payment. The data costs at that scale alone are enormous.
