My town made the news. (link) This is on Stanford around the corner from three of my customers. (map) Local police say video viewers think they recognize one of the perps and that they probably left due to being seen from passing cars.

Maybe they were just looking for a job, or wanting to ask directions to the playground.

The playground may be hiring construction people link.

Well that is unfortunate. I signed up for Vimeo to put my videos and animations there. Guess what? I cannot upload anything without allowing a script called "google.com" to run. I noticed a multitude of other google scripts too. So leaving Youtube and going to Vimeo is not an escape from google. Google is evil. Deleted the Vimeo account.

Looking at the source code it looks like it's for tag management and ad serving, which, like horseshit, is everywhere. If you want to avoid this sort of thing, turn off your computer, unplug it, and then smash it thoroughly with a sledgehammer. They are probably also checking to see that you aren't just re-serving up youtube vids on an alternate video service. Some more bits allow you to connect your vimeo account with file storage services like OneDrive, Google, DropBox, etc.
They may be evil, but this stuff looks pretty benign.

Nothing about google is benign. I'll tolerate some google stuff, like you said, everywhere, either accept it or get off the web. The problem with Vimeo is that you can't upload a video without allowing the main google script. That is far beyond showing ads. As far as avoiding google there's no difference between Vimeo and youtube.
