      I’ve heard in another post on this topic that NewPipe scrapes the videos from YouTube, acting like a normal user, and presents you with the videos without ads. Supposedly, YouTube would find it very hard to block NewPipe’s method as a result.

      I use ReVanced, so I’m not so sure how safe I am. May have to move to NewPipe if we end up affected by this.
