    I’m well aware revenue and profit arent 1:1. You’re “source” is a “Google person says they break even” in 2015. I give you graphs showing revenue growing at almost 4x the rate of users since 2015. Are they making 800% more profit, obviously not. But they sure as hell aren’t losing money on YouTube anymore.

      My guy… Userbases increases come with increased traffic and the need for more data storage and bandwidth. We not only don’t know what their expenses are but we can’t even make a good guess. Your “graphs” show revenue. Stop pointing to them like they matter in any sense. They don’t.

      800% in REVENUE means nothing if expenses are 805%.
