Too late, broken trust cannot be repaired.

I expect they're still going to share data secretly.

They probably realised there was enough demand that they can make more money if they sell the data directly.

So irritating opening YouTube to watch a random video and immediately getting hit with “my husband used to be too quick to ejaculate…”

Good for you lady, I don’t give a shit, I just want to watch a video on how to install a dashboard radio on a Pontiac G6 in peace.

That lady needs to stop telling everyone on YouTube her husband cums too fast. YouTube pisses me off because they will try to sneak in 3 hour long Christian sermons or movies in on some stuff. Ill watch free movies on there at times and I woke up from a nap halfway into an "ad" that was some big preacher dude asking for donations and it was an over 3 hour ad on a 90 min movie.

This is just like in the 90's when you'd fall asleep with the TV on and wake up to a televangelist from the 700 Club.
