The youtube videos are downloaded via your browser (chrome or firefox) Stop watching videos is the only way to stop that!

Chrome has this continue to run in background option, disable that in Google Chrome's advanced settings.

Because Google Inc is the owner of YouTube and the videos are delivered from that server! Or do you see any other ip connection related to the video at the same time?
