That said, if users want to stop YouTube or Google from collecting cookies, there is no single "I Disagree" or "Reject" button. Instead, visitors have to go ahead and click the "Customize" button. But if you are in a hurry - the easier route is to select "I Agree," even if, in reality, you feel otherwise.
It is worth noting that when users choose the "I Agree" option, it should give Google full control as to which data it collects.
On the other hand, the "Customize" route lets users enable or disable several data collections, such as Search, YouTube History, and even ad personalization options.
