YouTube’s plan backfires, people are installing better ad blockers::People are installing and uninstalling ad blockers in record high numbers as a result of YouTube’s anti-ad blocking efforts.
Another extension of mine was fucking with youtube and preventing it from playing. Spent ages trying to figure out what was happening. The entire time I just kept saying “Fuck you” outloud. The only thing this adblock stuff is doing is giving me the drive to look further into it.
Honestly if they just said fuck it and added a banner ad I wouldn’t have fought this hard against it. Even one or two image ads somewhere. But this? Fuck right off. I’m not sitting through 30 seconds of ads for a 20 second video. Something that is happening way too damn often lately.
