The Issue

YouTube has long been a sanctuary for many, a platform where anyone can sit down and unwind with content tailored to their preferences. However, under the leadership of Neal Mohan, this refuge has been marred by incessant advertisements that disrupt our videos and disturb our peace. For those who turn to YouTube for relaxation or meditation, these interruptions cause unnecessary stress.

In an era marked by soaring living costs and financial uncertainty for many households, we are being dictated to by a billionaire who insists on either enduring intrusive ads or paying for an expensive premium service. This is not just about annoyance; it's about principle. It's about standing up against the exploitation of users' time and attention without their consent.

Neal Mohan's approach is not aligned with the spirit of user-centricity that should define platforms like YouTube. His insistence on interrupting user experience with adverts reflects a disregard for the very community that makes YouTube what it is today.

We believe there are alternatives to this ad-heavy model which can still generate revenue while respecting users' experiences. We call upon Google Inc., as the parent company of YouTube, to reconsider its current leadership and replace Neal Mohan as CEO.
