    Holy shit.
    TLDR:
    You can essentially pay money(50-100 for smaller channels, 400+ for larger(thousands for someone like Mr beast)) to kill someone’s video with ads. Basically, make a clickbait ad for advertising else’s channel, the audience finds out it’s clickbait, they leave the video early, the algorithm sees viewer retention go down, it stops recommending the video.
