Time to use an adblock blocker blocker extension.
I think that would be NoScript.
NoScript would sadly leave you with NoVideo.
Does youtube even work with NoScript? I just assumed that google has 50 different scrips running that break the site if they aren't allowed
Yep, it's about to become a never ending fight
Ad blockers vs ad blocker detectors.
At least untill the lobbyist big companies lobby for laws to start suing people for using ad blockers in "violation" of their tos due to a form of "circumvention measure"
At least right now, the code is freely available due to the nature of how HTML, JavaScript and CSS works. - this nature is exactly how a government agency got caught leaking SSNs of teachers, and due to the law, couldn't perform legal action at what they called a "hacking" attempt.
It feels like its only a matter of time before these shitty companies seek to close that law in order to start calling HTML analysis "hacking"
