You got a source to google owning your content if you upload to YouTube?
Lessee, recent censorship issues, the fact that you can get demonetized or straight-up struck down if you say something Google don't like, the fact that your channel can and will get taken down if Google don't like you....
That isn't Google owning your content though, just Google deciding what you can do with your content on their service.
It is for all functional purposes the same thing.
If you don't own and control it and someone else does and you have no power or ability to stop them
You don't own it
To try to draw a line here is pointless in anything but a debate of technicalities and reality doesn't care about those.
