Well for you it may I was forced to link a GMail account that I do not have.

Well thats good that you enjoy it. If you like being told what your browsing experience should be like then good for you.

I like YouTube because if somebody puts poop on it, there is no holy bastard to take it off, according to his own warped criteria of what is poop.

How many of want Curly Fries to decide what is poop, and take off what he thinks is poop?

YouTube now forces you to watch to many ads just to see a short clip!

I love it for two main reasons---looking up my team's potential draft picks and what they've done and for looking up older music....

I could be wrong, but I don't think YouTube controls that. A lot of entities that own the rights to material on YouTube embed a revenue-generating commercial in the content, so you have to view the commercial in order to view what they own the rights to.

Well I can't explain why you are being forced to link to a GMail account when I don't have to. All I'm saying is right now I can still log in without doing that. If at some point in the future I can no longer do that, then I'll simply stop going to YouTube.

I think if you knew me better, you'd realize just how wrong your statement is. I don't get upset about how things transpire on the internet. I'm not that loyal to any site that I let it control me in any way. If I can accept the rules that govern how people interact with the site, then I visit it. But if something changes and I no longer like what they are doing, I simply walk away. No skin off my back. I dropped Facebook like a hot potato when it started making changes that I wasn't happy with. No big deal to me. My life didn't depend on me having a FB account. Same thing holds true for YouTube.

I couldn't get to you tube without creating an account either.
And now all my internet searching and browsing is TOTALLY JACKED! Doesn't matter what browser I use, I even logged out of google - I'm getting bad search results and redirected to crappy sales sites no matter what I do.
I used to love google. Now I'm starting to think its the devil.
