An unsuccessful attempt to get around Youtube's adblocker (but some ideas that could work)

24 Oct, 2023

^{I really wonder what a warrant canary is. Any help would be appreciated.}

Recently Youtube put a new anti-adblocker thing on their websites. I've tried it out on firefox when signed in, and it seems to be effective (mostly) against uBlockOrigin and Youtube Adblocker.

Anyways today I opened up an incognito tab in chrome and tried to see if that would alleviate my ad problems. It did not.

In summary, it looks like we're all screwed. There seems to be no good way around these ads, as using Chrome (ads) and Firefox (your video doesn't load) and Chrome incognito (more ads) all result in some form or another of denial.

tl;dr (for those that want an image)
