ad blockers are not "on youtube", they are on my devices
allowed by whom?
fuck you
Just click the "not using an adblocker" button. If everyone does that it'll probably whitelist the blockers, we can hope.
By the same logic, they can make any changes to youtube they want and that is perfectly OK. Youtube isn't on your PC. It's on their server. You don't own that server. They can reject your connection to their server for any reason they want.
Technically, YouTube runs on your computer as well as their servers. They could put a crypto mining script on there if they wanted,and I think most people would concur that that is unacceptable.
Rare to see there valid points in a row.
