I hope they keep this code in YT.
It will be a party for the EU to punish Google with an anti-monopoly lawsuit.
Best case: google gets forced to split up chrome, youtube and search as they obviously abuse their power.

Would be a bad day for the Internet. There's no way Youtube is financially viable without being cross-subsidised by Google's search income and running on Google's peering agreements with ISPs. Ads would be nowhere near enough to cover the bandwidth cost, which is why sooner or later any attempt to copycat it failed or went down to utter niche content.
