Youtube General thread (formerly Youtube Censorship discussion thread)

[Alex Hogendorp]

Funny how we cannot say "Suicide" on YouTube anymore but companies can run ads on YouTube that violate their TOS for porn, spam, scams and dangerous content and get no repercussions for it.

I have used an adblocker for 13 years now, since 2012. And nobody can tell me that's illegal. Not even the kikes and jeets who run Google.

 

[HOMO FOR LIFE RETURNS]

YouTube premium is pretty useful for me. I get YouTube music on top of no ads. Pretty good deal.

 

[DwayneTheSockJohnson]

At this point anyone who isn't using an adblocker just plain deserves to be served up with hour long adds on their shit. You know what? I hope YouTube just puts 3 or 4 of these hour long ads at the very beginning of their videos and add another 3 or 4 more ads interspersed throughout the video, even if it's a 2 minute music video or a 15 second meme.

 

[FailurePersonifiedV2]

I use Smartube on a fire stick, fuck ads lol.

Niggas also should realize that there are legit projects that you can find on github and similar where you can sideload an ad free experience on your phone (iOS and android)

 

[Kulee Baba]

Who is going to sit thru such ads instead of just closing the video?

 

[GayestFurryTrash]

Do you think Youtube would let me pay for an hour long ad that's just racial slurs?

“Ads are a vital lifeline for our creators that helps them run and grow their businesses. That’s why the use of ad blockers violate YouTube’s Terms of Service. We’ve launched a global effort to urge viewers with ad blockers enabled to allow ads on YouTube or try YouTube Premium for an ad free experience.”

fuck, you work 9 hours a day hauling other people’s art installations with never a thank you, but the monotone faggot who sits in a chair and samples dildos makes millions. Fuck em.

How dare you. Beat yourself up since I can't do it for you.

No but you can listen to Kiwifarms make a rap song one post at a time.

 

[Hermann von Salsa]

I remember when people lost their shit over YouTube forcing people to endure two ads, It all seems so tamed in comparison to now.

Somebody earlier in the thread mentioned that they just cleared their cookies and I tried that for myself but it didn’t work. I must retvrn to ad-less freedom and the struggle leaves me restless.

Have you tried using a VPN?

Now i want to make an hour long ad of Neil mohan just saying "SAAR IM FUCKING INDIAN SAAAR, PLEEZ HALP IM FUCKING INDIAN, IM INDIAN" while the sounds of someone machinegun shit-farting are looped in the background.

 

[NOT Sword Fighter Super]

they got what amounts to an automated response that saw the word 'ad'. i'm not sure why they think this is a real human response. it doesn't even have anything to do with the problem in question.

"Is not bug, is feature, HU-MON."

 

[VeteranOfTheRetardWars]

If you can’t figure out how to block advertisements by now you legitimately deserve Mr. YouTube himself forcing you to watch an hour long ad like so:

 

[Banana Hammock]

"Not enough people are buying Premium. Better up the price every year!"

These people are complete retards. Nobody's going to pay almost $15 per month for fucking YouTube.

 

[Stoneheart]

So basically they gave a non-answer and then pinned everything on adblockers...somehow (source: trust me, bro)

isnt there some scam adblocker that replaces some ads with their own?

 

[Tri-Tachyon'sClown]

Welp, if I ever switch off Floorp I'll check out Brave.

 

[Banana Hammock]

Welp, if I ever switch off Floorp I'll check out Brave.

Oh, hey. Another Floorp user. Hey, do you have issues with freezing when you watch a livestream on YT?

 

[Town Drunk]

Tbh this just seems like a glitch/mistake and then an automated AI written email response.

There's literally zero possibility that Google genuinely wants to implement unskippable hour long ads. Like let's be realistic here

Considering the adds I used to see where how annoying adds are, please buy premium to avoid them. I wouldn't put anything past them. I honestly don't know who want to buy adds anyway, when you pay for them, and YT gets money to not show them to paid users.

Floorp off; use Brave instead.
