It's been my worry that at some point Google will force DRM on YouTube and I won't be able to backup interesting channels, but I didn't expect Google will put DRM on majority of websites. Last week Google granted itself rights to scrape all the internet for its AI, but doesn't us to do it.

The genius marketing move behind Google nowadays is convincing people that indexing and scraping are two different things and they are the only entity allowed to do it.
