    So you could be using and supporting alternate platforms, but YouTube is so valuable to you that you don't bother.

      Who said I don’t? Why can’t I use both?

      You’re trying to fabricate a point here, and I just don’t think it fits me

        I don't believe you do because you would've linked to it instead of YouTube.

        You're getting on a moral high horse about how it's fair and right to pirate from YouTube because of their bad behavior, yet when given a free alternative platform to view the videos from a creator you respect enough to link, you don't. You go to YouTube.

        Let's give an example:

        I think you underestimate how much pirates and the opposition truly hate google and their practices and the lengths they will go to in order to get the content they want.

        Apparently not very hard at all, since there was a Google-free way to get the content you want that you didn't even attempt to pursue.
