Another great article from 404 Media highlighting the power that the tech giants have amassed over how how we use the internet.
This brings me, I think, to the elephant in the room, which is the fact that Google has its hands on quite literally every aspect of this entire saga as a vertically integrated adtech giant.
This extreme power over the adtech and online advertising ecosystem is one of the subjects of an FTC antitrust suit against Google.
Invidious and Freetube are still YouTube though?
Yes. I see it like using a custom android ROM, it couldn’t exist without Google but its the most private I can be while not going without. I do watch as many creators as possible via Nebula, though.
