Call me a conspiracy theorist but I think that YT and their ilk are probably very interested in people getting scammed with crypto so that they and their media partners can do more scaremongering about the dangers of crypto in general.

I would imagine they are very aware it is a scam but intentionally allow it to continue.

We are in agreement then. At this point nothing else makes any sense. Even saw another ad yesterday so that is now 5-6 days. Could be longer that is just from when I first noticed them.

I agree to your conclusion. Can´t be coincidence.

I even saw another ad again today. I'm surprised there isn't a bigger uproar over this.
