    Imagine being so cocky that you think pirated YouTube videos can’t be a thing.

      You can however, almost certainly correctly, predict that most people are not going to care enough to bother pirating YouTube videos, especially given how many people watch YouTube on phones or smart TVs now.

        I have a separate app just to watch YouTube through which lets me subscribe and all the rest without an account and without ads and it was Uber easy to install.

        I think you underestimate how much pirates and the opposition truly hate google and their practices and the lengths they will go to in order to get the content they want.

          I think you’re dramatically overestimating how many people actually care about this, or any tech issue, enough to “truly hate Google”. The vast majority of Android users have never sideloaded an app and don’t even know what that means, while obviously that’s not doable on iPhones at all.
