I thought it was going to be some normal youtube video about yt being shite as usual, the video just devolves into: Youtube and Russia are colluding to destroy murican values… like copyright.

is just fucking weird, i guess libs are going to do as much mental gymnastics as possible to avoid thinking why corporations care only about money and will go into some weird conspiranoid places. Also includes random nationalism, bad russian accents, and a complete refusal to see any systemic cause for corporations shitty behaviour, or courts siding with said corporations 100% of the time.

    I can’t even comprehend how someone can come up with a theory like that. It’s entirely out in the open that Google is part of the US national security state. Started with CIA seed money, gets intelligence and defense contracts, tests sketcky programs with Israeli intelligence and military, freely shares private information with US intelligence and law enforcement (FISA rubber stamp or not), high level staff come and go between silicon valley and intelligence agencies… That can’t be a comprehensive list either.
