youtube getting more aggressive… i’ve got firefox and ublock but this shit is still coming up
Get Firefox, install uBlock Origin, clear the filter cache, and reload the filter cache.
Worked for me and my dad
It is time to stop the Chrome plauge.
That didn’t work for me. Seems theyre still detecting it.
Yet, I’ve not gotten any of these messages on Chrome + uBlock Origin so far.
They are probably hitting people in waves, in an effort to make sure this isn’t a surge, then a massive protest like the Unity situation.
But once google realizes they’ll have to burn serious money and make their product worse on the global stage to fix the problem, they’ll quit just like Microsoft, AOL, and Netscape.
But I think this campaign is just there to loosen the people who installed an ad-block, but have no idea what an ad-block is.
Which will be different from the people who know about “alternate methods,” and will easily slip the google net unnoticed.
Please resume watching…Please resume watching…Please resume watching…
What could come of people clicking on the “Report issue” option and sending back tons of false reports claiming that they have gotten the pop-up message despite not using an ad-blocker?
People are going to throw a brick at me, but I’m using brave and have never seen this.
This has probably nothing to do with the browser in this case. YT is A/B testing this, which makes reproduction harder as they slowly roll it out.
Very plausible. I also haven’t recently been signing in when watching.
I noticed some thoughts in this thread estimating that this is being rolled out to users logging in for the time being.
To be fair it is how they make their money.
