    that’s not how it is to be interpreted.
    it means something like in order for google maps to show you your position they NEED to access your device’s gps service, otherwise maps by design can not display your position.

      Correct. Youtube can still play videos on your screen on a technical level without the need for adblocker detection. Their financial situation is not relevant in that respect.
