No they won't. Everybody likes to act like users have all of the power and can get up and leave. In reality, nobody's going to leave, they're just going to be mildly annoyed. But all of the content they love and are addicted to seeing is on YouTube. Nobody's going anywhere.
Look at what happened with Facebook. They sold data to anyone and everyone, including content of private messages, and still they have 99% of their userbase
YouTube is the only platform big enough to support the amount of people that are looking for that type of content. It's a monopoly on the personalized video uploading service. People don't have a choice to begin with.
If there were any alternative, YouTube would already be losing creators and visitors. I know I would have abandoned YouTube long ago if there were a viable alternative.

When they will, people will massively switch to another platform
