Comment on Youtube's Anti-adblock is illegal in the EU

In the second quarter of 2023, Google’s revenue amounted to over 74.3 billion U.S. dollars, up from the 69.1 billion U.S. dollars registered in the same quarter a year prior.

But man if we don’t pay for youtube premium how will they survive?

  I think they have pretty recently finally become profitable thanks to the increased amount of ads. Although you could always make the argument before that the data YouTube provides to Google that allowed their ad and data empire to thrive is invaluable whether YouTube directly profits or not.

    why would it be invaluable? I am guessing it’s valuable amd is valued at a very close estimate at least.

The amount of money they made is entirely meaningless without knowing their spending.

Revenue isn’t profit?
