Oh thank god: its only on Chrome
It’s strange that they go to this much effort to ban ad blockers. What’s the percentage of their user base watching on devices with ad blockers? I bet it’s low — especially when including smart tv viewers in those numbers.
AdNauseum still works; so do many others.
Ublock was leading to errors when a YouTube link was clicked for me, but refreshing the page just loaded the video. It seems that doesn't happen anymore today. Am I the only one?
