You already ate that hotdog. You’re asking for more free hotdogs. At this point I have to wonder if you’re trying to fool me or yourself.

I'd argue it's the advertisers and their hosts that are fooling you. Though I'm sure they'd be happy to know your stance on their practices.

I don’t know, I pay for YouTube so I don’t have to deal with ads. Ad supported YouTube is a subpar experience that costs your time and data, similar to how your usage is an infrastructure cost to YouTube which ad revenue is supposed to cover and then bring some profit because they’re not a charity.
