I must admit, I never considered "keeping people away from your platform" and "self-DDos" as possible candidates, for my social media bullshit bingo (lemmy.world)

What did YouTube do tho?

Trying to lock you out, if you didn't pay for premium and using an Adblocker instead.

Doesn't happen to me on firefox using ublock origin. I've never seen an ad on youtube and i just got done watching a bunch of music videos.

[-] SnowFoxx@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

For me neither, but that feature also isn't implemented yet. So this could change at anytime.

They haven't rolled it out to everyone. It's being tested.

They're rolling out blocking videos for people who use adblockers. Google's ad business is finally saying "no" to anyone who tries to get around watching ads.
