Little tip for ya, in case you care: see that question mark in the middle of your YouTube link, and then all those characters after it? That’s a referral tracker, and it can possibly be used to identify you by your Google account. You can delete the question mark and everything after it, and the link will still work fine.
That’s the privacy reason to delete that tracker before you share a YouTube link.
If you just wanna tell Google to go fuck themselves, deleting it also makes it slightly more difficult for them to gain valuable tracking info by seeing how you sharing a video eventually leads to some rando watching the video in a WhatsApp group tomorrow. They’ve still got plenty of info that they can use to track this, so it’s more like spitting in their coffee rather than poisoning their bagel.

Please let this be an old Colbert “Yaweh or No Way” clip…
Edit: Darn it! And I can’t seem to find a clip on the internet anywhere…
Similar but not quite. You can safely click, it’s fun 😁
