In adult I think most of us get fucked more because we have 30 second to 5 minute clips or photo blogs and we are competing against tubes with 50,000 50 minute videos. Google favors the tubes heavily as they make use of ToS and bounce data.

Big brands have been the favorites since 08:
Google CEO Calls Internet a Cesspool, Thinks Brands Are the Solution
BY MEGHAN KEANE10.08.089:13 AM
The Internet may be a cesspool, but its Google’s cesspool. Speaking to a group of magazine executives at the Google headquarters, Google CEO Eric Schmidt said yesterday that the Internet is becoming a breeding ground for false information, reports Ad age. But trusted brands help weed through the disinformation:
"Brands are the solution, not the problem… Brands are how you sort out the cesspool."
Schmidt was trying to quell fears that Google is trying to take over the role of publishers and advertisers online, saying: "We don’t do content. You all create content. It’s a natural partnership."
But he reserved a few fighting words for members of the Association of National Advertisers who opposed the company’s proposed deal with Yahoo on the grounds that it would limit competition and raise ad prices:
"If you’re going to criticize us, criticize us correctly. We’re guilty of many things, but that’s not one of them."
