The whole advertising placement outrage thing is passing. Anybody under 50 who sees an ad next to something off putting knows the brand in question didn't put it there intentionally. They don't get outraged, they say "it's just the algorithm" and move on.

Advertisers know this. So unless you are going to abandon YouTube because you see recommendations you don't like (and the fact that your comment is here shows that you aren't) there is no revenue impact to YouTube.
