    There are countless other video streaming services.

    There are government websites - including my state’s dmv - that exclusively use youtube. You’re being disingenuous when you’re saying you can just use another streaming service (and I don’t believe you don’t know it).

      The efficient solution to that problem is governments using a different platform that’s actually neutral. The government has full control over where they host their videos. Using that as a reason to TRY (a likely long and drawn out process) to force Google to change its policies company-wide is silly.

      I’m not being disingenuous. I watch videos on a bunch of platforms. It’s easy.

        First time I’ve heard public services called efficient, but ok.

        We’re not talking about you here. You’re purposely ignoring the problem, and therefore being disingenuous.
