You think people that use YouTube have privacy?

    Privacy is a spectrum, there are ways to improve or worsen it on basically every website. The implementation of a system like this matters a lot; requiring the sites to collect and store IDs like they've been doing in the UK dramatically worsens user privacy with no upside.

    Do you think YouTube/Google don't store all of your data, your IP address and follow you around the internet collecting more information?

    I don't dispute that the UK are going about it all wrong, but in the spectrum of privacy that you speak of, I believe using Googles platforms comes with its own issues. It may even make people take notice and be more careful of what platforms they use.
