They are not private companies that sell data but rather black ops organizations that were set up to provide a front for the 3 letter agencies that are paid huge sums of cash to act as fronts.
If people understood digital marketing they would revolt. On the front end it is the biggest psychological expirement unleashed on a largely unaware planet earth, and on the back end its the largest data collection machine of all time.
I deleted everything I had Google related after I worked there, moved everything off the cloud. Zach is 1000% correct.
And I must say that the analysis and ideas in this thread are great. High level stuff. Excellent discussion!
It also explains why so many tech companies are so blase about profits. They have an understanding that their product can ultimately be monetized for unconstitutional activity.
I suspect that Google doesn’t actually make that much money off of ads and instead, they are just selling your data to the CIA / NSA / China etc since the early 2000's. I believe the whole ad revenue narrative is mostly a cover for their surveillance capitalism which is growing obsolete in the face of competition. I don’t recall ever buying a single product from a Google ad. I don’t know anyone that has. When I was doing a product company as CEO, I was advised by a Marketing consultant to avoid Google ads unless I can "stick it out for three months and accept a lot of losses."
And this is typical, people in marketing avoid Google ads and stick with Facebook and Instagram because the ROI is so much better. There is only one company on the internet that I spend a ton of money on and that’s Amazon. But apparently, Google is bigger than them because of revenue from ads? That makes no sense at all. I don't know why people aren't asking more questions about this.
Hopefully, someone will do an audit of Google as this anti-trust case winds through the DOJ and someone will check their ad-words accounts. My guess is that the Chinese are funneling money through "ad purchases" and their employees doing the laundering are getting lazy and just buying keywords they type out randomly on the keyboard to get their numbers up.
I also think that YouTube is doing the same thing. Hence the reason there isn't even a DRM encryption mechanism available to any common creator. This allows countries like China to wholesale scrape all of YouTube as a giant surveillance op. The only benefit is that we get to do the same thing.
What's funny about the lack of a DRM encryption option is that it's already well supported within browsers and hardware because of companies like Netflix. You can see this in action if you try to copy a video from Netflix via OBS. You'll get a black screen.
So the fact YouTube doesn't even have this DRM option is mind-boggling. The only way Google and YouTube make sense to me is if they are doing all this because someone or a bunch of people are putting money in their pocket to keep all this data open to the intelligence orgs across the planet.
Anyway, the jig is up. Google fucked themselves by ruining their product, DEI telling their white engineers they were perpetuating white supremacy, and then flooding their engineering roles and centers of cultural control with Chinese engineers, with a large portion of them being foreign intelligence sleeper cells.

DEI has at least two goals from what I see.
Remove white (particularly male) engineers who won't put up with their fascist shit.
Conceal their infiltration efforts by explaining it all away as social justice.
Edit, additional.
Keep us all divided to keep us under their control.
I'd say more than half of YouTube ads I'm served are for scams, whether financial get-rich-quick schemes or products that can't possibly do what the ads claim. So advertisers will make a lot of profit on that 0.01% conversion rate. I don't even look at Google ads, so he might be right about that.
uBlock Origin does a pretty good job of keeping up with the ad-block-blocker tech. I started using Brave browser on my mobile devices, that works perfect too.
There was a report several years ago that JCPenney, as it was barely hanging on to solvency, made more money selling your credit card information and purchases than it did selling merchadise.
That's not true, Google absolutely breaks in massive, massive amounts of money from so, so many services. Ads is their biggest and yes they do so our data in ways that would shock us but
This voorhees guy has turned out to be quite the moron. The amount of things I've seen him get wrong, like talking about the steel that was in Titanic versus the steel that's going into icebreakers, the guy doesn't understand so many things, it was embarrassing
Also, I don't think people quite understand how Ads work. Yes, clicking on them is nice for the advertiser and it gives them instant feedback that their Ad worked, BUT, even more important than clicks, is making sure that their product is the first product you think of when you need "X".
Ads program us into specific patterns of thinking when we need to buy something and that's far more valuable than a click.
The ads are paid for by companies with massive marketing budgets. Most are not pay per conversion but pay per click or cpm buying. People think Google is the only player in adtech, and they aren't. App nexus makes stupid money as the second biggest player in Google's space.
I should know something about this, it's the industry I've worked in for almost 2 decades. It is a multi billion dollar industry.
Discord came out of nowhere and took over the chat/comms programs by storm. They had to have had millions in up-front investment from somewhere to have as complete of a package as they had at release, which leads me to believe that it was funded by someone who wants a giant data collection platform.
What does "discord" mean? Does it sound like something you want any part of? Why didn't they name it Harmony? Why Discord specifically?
These people don't name things randomly. Discord is what they want. If we all stand together, then we rule over these people. If we're all infighting... creating Discord, then they rule over us.
Just like "Dominion" voting. Dominion is the opposite of democracy. If someone has dominion over you, they are your ruler.
These people think you're stupid and they're laughing in your face with their blatant choice of names and logos.
The same goes for "free" things, particularly pornography. It's "ad-supported", which just means that some Satanic Pedo Banker is creating Federal Reserve funny money to throw at trying to ruin the sexuality of young people.

As someone who works in digital marketing, it’s insane.
Bingo!
Dating sites as well.

Popular music used to be popular. Now popular music is merely hyped satanic bullshit.
Bob Marley's cancer probably came form the same source as Jack Ruby's.

Any "data breach" could be a planned data broker transaction.
After they made money off your personal information, they blame some nonexistent hackers....
I have always thought data breaches were black market transactions.
It's not just some random guy in a basement that's hacking a top 10 company. Those days are long gone.

Why do you see YouTube ads?
Only on my phone and Fire Stick.
Try Brave web browser
revanced bro.

Google, Facebook, pre-Elon Twitter, Reddit, Amazon, probably porn sites. I bet that's the case with a lot of Big Tech.
Microsoft started as a CIA project.
Google started as a CIA project.
Facebook started as a CIA project.
Twitter started as a CIA project.
Apple became a CIA project.
Darn good article. I never trusted Google, but this article lays out the exact reasons why no one should.
Don't forget Discord.
