#adBlockers
9to5 Google: YouTube just started a new round of ad blocker bans, and people keep complaining about it. “For a while, many have been using various loopholes to continue to block ads on YouTube. Over the past 24 hours, YouTube appears to have strengthened its protection against this means of access, with viewers now seeing ‘Ad blockers are not allowed on YouTube’ and ‘Ad blockers violate […]

YouTube part à la chasse aux ad blockers, au grand dam des resquilleurs http://dlvr.it/TLCdpf #YouTube #AdBlockers
Ad blockers are great at making websites usable. If you don't want me to use an ad blocker, just display ads that aren't a security threat and/or make the browser slow down to a crawl and/or make your content very hard to view.
But you won't do the above so uBlock stays and I can skip your site.
🚦🚴♂️ In the land of dreams where cars rule the streets, #NYC decides that running red lights is a special privilege reserved for those on two wheels... with pedals. 🚗💨 Meanwhile, the NYTimes thinks you're here for their #JavaScript and ad-blocker detective game, not actually reading the #news. 🙄📜

https://theintercept.com/2025/05/22/intel-agencies-buying-data-portal-privacy/ This is a #privacy nightmare that's turned into a total disaster. If this were my #government doing this I'd seek to give as little information to all companies as possible Avoid all social media, and if you don't use only #anonymous accounts with a #proxy. Use #adblockers on every device. Network wide ad blocking would be ideal. Ditch #Apple and #Google products and install #Grapheneos and avoid connecting to cell towers and use only wifi. Proxy all data connections. 1/2
And exactly as I thought instead of education and simplifying workflows purposes these companies' "AI's" will be used to generate a "better" ads experience for you. Absolutely disgusting.
While they are still available use the Ad Blockers or FreeTube App if you want to see more sane and adequate ytb like it used to be long time ago.

#Adblockers are necessary for #Accessibility and #ITsec in the age of #malvertising aka. #malware being #advertised openly as wannabe-legitimate software!
#YouTube Is Promoting #Adblockers Now... by #sog #fckytbe #yt
I find it mildly interesting and somewhat telling that since I've been surfing the #web with a #VPN and #adblockers, how many websites track the hell out of you or just flat out block you.
It's most.
🔒🤫 In a stunning twist of events, a billionaire with a penchant for secrecy and tweets apparently has a #crypto firm. 🌍💰 Meanwhile, the New York Times is trying to reinvent itself as a tech support hotline for confused readers who can't figure out how to disable their ad blockers. 🙄

Silly name, but the #pihole is a great way to block ads on every device in your home. If anyone needs any tips to get started let me know.

I just got a message from #Yahoo in which they update their terms of use and where they forbid the usage of #Adblockers. Well, it's over now, Yahoo.
#HoyAprendí que cuando llútú te exige desbloquear los anuncios porque “está prohibido usar #AdBlockers” puedes usar la herramienta #HideDistractingItems de Safari para “desaparecer” este candado en forma de #PopUp y seguir viendo videos sin anuncios.
🤑🤣 Ah, the utopian dream where taxing ads magically solves all problems! As if ad-blockers aren't doing that job already. 🌐💸 Meanwhile, the author's internet connection is as stable as their logic. 🚫📶
