What Sea Shepard strategically omitted is that there’s like 400 million tonnes in the water, and the natural turnover is pretty fast.
There’s dummy amounts of krill and not a lot of human uses for them. The fishing industry in general is problematic, but I’d expect literally every other fishery is more heavily exploited.

It takes processing to do that, though, and straight out of the water they’re poisonous to humans. I’m guessing this site is literally advertising (although it won’t load for me), so they might gloss over that.
Like, sure, there’s lots of things you could use them for, and that might be huge applications in the future, but for now IIRC it’s mostly used as fish food.
