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.
