Neither does your ad blocker. If you don’t want to give Google tracking data - a very valid position - don’t use their services at all. They don’t need to sell an ad to track what you watch, from where, or what devices you use.

Nope thats not true, Adblockers stop a lot of ad tracking, blocking tracking pixels, scripts, telemetry and so on.

Sure - on third party sites where Google can’t see the traffic. Do you really think YouTube refuses to share that data internally with Google’s core business?
