Youtube's Anti-adblock is illegal in the EU
(eupolicy.social)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
The rubes who don't use adblockers and those who subscribe.
The point is that YouTube was profitable before implementing these anti-adblocking measures.
Anyways man, have a good day. Gonna block you now.
Just for the sake of posterity and in case anyone is actually looking for solutions: using an app to open YouTube in a new frame on Firefox absolutely will work to block ads and leave your adblockers of choice intact with no effect to your ability to watch YouTube or use your Google account if you have one.
The person above me didn't read or didn't understand. YouTube makes most of their profit from displaying ads and this is the business model that made them profitable. Trying to slide around the question so you can feel good about yourself is garbage. https://www.theverge.com/2020/2/4/21121370/youtube-advertising-revenue-creators-demonetization-earnings-google
