Pretty much the subject line. uBO has successfully blocked the nag screen enough times that I can’t play anything at this point. No preview loads, and the play button serves no function. I’d really prefer not to have to find content on YT, copy the URL and use Piped/Invidious, but this ongoing escalation is steeling my resolve to screw Google.

    I hope you are contributing to the content creators in other ways, then.

      I am, as it happens, but I don’t feel under any obligation to.

      Firstly, how they get paid is a private matter between them and YouTube, they signed their contracts, not me.

      Secondly, YouTube could run privacy-respecting non-targeted ads. I’m not punishing YouTube for having ads, I’m punishing them for being spyware.
