My only quarrel with Google is how they have changed YouTube, arguably for the worse. The Google+ comment integration is a very, very bad policy and the ContentID changes are also bad, because even using a few seconds of footage from another party registered to this system not only means that you cannot monetize your video at all, but also that ads will still be running on your video and the copyright holders registered on ContentID will get the full income.

This has even allowed a lot of copyright trolls to cheat the system and instantly claim revenue from videos they are not supposed to claim revenue from.
