It's back to what Chamath was saying, which is like,
Whatever niche there is out there, however big or however small, you're going to find a set of creators that are just as passionate about it as you are.
Yeah, it's the part that turns my hair white.
But look, I think part of it, I say this to my team all the time, which is,

connect, get information, entertain themselves.
Learning, we're the largest learning platform in the world.
We know that, obviously, just given all the use cases and the watch time, et cetera.
At least from my standpoint, I try to be as global as we possibly can in terms of principles.

It stands for freedom of expression, freedom of speech.
We are, you know, an American company, and that notion, that sort of value of freedom of speech is core to our ethos, and we really do try to start with that as a global position.
Having said that, you're right.

patchwork of legislation and regulation that exists in every country.
Yeah, I mean, look, the answer is... Or is it algorithmic, or is it a combination?
It's always some combination, because, you know, the scale of YouTube is, you know, hundreds of hours of content is uploaded to YouTube every single minute of every single day.
