The fools at YouTube have been hard at work circumventing adblock to make our lives miserable so they can make 3 more cents per view. Hopefully ublock catches up.

Fuck these people.

    Origin.

    Updating it did seem to work for now! Using Firefox.

    Google must scramble every day to get us to stop using adblock. How many hours of peoples lives are spent trying to circumvent it…

      Ya google tries hard to screw people over. If they put half as much energy into making better products maybe people wouldn’t try to block their crap all the time.

      Breaking adblock even for one day likely pays the salary for several people. They would not be doing it if it didn’t pay.

      You may think it’s demotivating work, but there’s a breed of engineers that lives for adversarial stuff like this.

        I would bet some of those engineers after they finish they work day, they go on to pull an update on Ublock Origin filters so UBo works again.
