The ad revenue is a portion of what the advertisers paid.
YouTube DOES get its content for free. They pay YouTubers per view, essentially a portion of profit, whereas something like Netflix pays for the creation of content and then also a portion of profit made.

Who pays for the severs and billions of gigabytes of storage required to hold all those videos?
We do, with the data google sold about us all.
How much data left is there to sell about me? Pretty sure they know pretty much everything about us already.
My surfing habits change a little, but it’s mostly cyclical.
They don’t need new data to sell, they just find a new client who doesn’t have your info yet.
The point is that that’s in their own interest, because if they wouldn’t host it, they wouldn’t make any money.
