What exactly is the monopoly here?

Video content? YouTube's made it all but impossible to compete with their free offerings, for the cost of server upkeep alone

How is that Google's fault? What is your solution to this?

Same as Walmart killing off every ma and pa shop is their fault, they lowbid the competition solely because they're able to with their monopolization, solution being actual competition in the industry.

Can't help but feel your goal posts are sentient with how much they're moving.
