YouTube's adblock war is backfiring in the worst way possible

yep, first thing I did was looking for a way around it, so I ended up with a new adblocker.

I did not even know a browser like brave existed, probably because I still have google as default search engine and only use the duck on occasion.

 

Gotta change my internet approach.

You were getting the YT notification to stop using Addblocker?  

Nothing for me yet. Been using the same old adblock for years.

Yes, I got the message, initially it kept working by opening the video in a private window, then this also got blocked. 
I changed from adblock plus to ublock origin. works way better than the former!

Rossman got it right. YT is shooting in it own leg with this shit.

Funny enough YouTube isn't going after the ad block videos anywhere near as hard as the grayjay stuff.
