You are now "paying" google twice - once with money and twice by giving them your data.

Your data is worthless if they can’t use it to show you targeted ads.
Even if you pay for Youtube, Google still shows ads in their other products (search/maps etc...). So the data is not worthless. It also gets stored forever and Google can figure out other ways to monetize it.
