Yeah, I think that using YouTube within Google Workspace can definitely present privacy concerns, including (and especially) third-party data sharing, content exposure risks, and inconsistent privacy protections compared to core services. Challenges include data residency compliance, inadequate access controls, and integration vulnerabilities. Some of My Key Recommendations Would Be: - Enforce clear policies and educate users on safe YouTube usage. - Regularly audit YouTube settings for compliance and security. - Leverage Google's tools like the Cloud Data Processing Addendum and YouTube management guide. - Proactive measures can help mitigate risks while ensuring compliance and security.

We've been a long time user of Google Workspace. We've also had to maintain a parallel set of Microsoft licenses (Office suite only - Word, Excel Powerpoint etc) for a portion of the organization. We will never be able to get to Google only - we have requirements for external content sharing/collaboration requirements (e.g. legal, procurement), application specific support for MS Office only, or at times simply user preference. We periodically have to harvest Microsoft licensing to avoid too much overlap. It imposes an approval process - who also gets Office. The use of both tools creates some inconvenience when moving between file formats both within the organization as well as externally sharing - they're pretty compatible but there are always formatting and other minor issues. We will not consider chrome enterprise premium. If we were migrating anywhere, it would be to standardize on Microsoft, though it's not high on the priority list at the moment.
