Edit: To clarify:

Is it even possible, financially speaking, to keep adding storage? I mean, advertisements don’t even make a lot of money, is the indefinite growth of server storage even sustainable?

Or will they do what Twitch does with old content and just delete them?

    So if Google allows to runout of space the it willing. That is quite circular.

    The amount of data YouTube is processing is not going to be affected by a small brigade.

    Please cite when YouTube has lost content because of storage failure.

    Do you understand the infrastructure Google has built around their services to prevent data loss?

    I’m not arguing any fool with a cloud account cannot lose data. This is specifically about YouTube.
