It looks like Youtube is on the verge of winning. I'm on my fourth adblocker now, but there isn't too many more that can get round Youtube's detection.

I don't blame Google and YouTube for what they're doing. They're protecting their business model. But they're also putting the adblocker companies out of business. Many people have already uninstalled the extensions. I'm surprised the Youtube hack has gone on for as long as it has.

I did the free 3 month ad free trial late last and got hooked without the ads. They got me for almost a year before I stopped paying. It took about a month to get comfortable looking at YouTube with ads.

Ublock origin so far has been keeping up. Everytime youtube scolds me, I go update the app

If only Obama were in office we'd all have free adblockers.

Unlock origin still works. It will only cease to work once YouTube starts embedding ads into the videos. And they can't do that while still keeping their premium users happy.

It will work until the DOJ indicts the CEO for some bullshit.

Musk is pretty damn lucky he sends military hardware into orbit every other week or he'd be fucked.

agreed. its probably the only reason he "created" starlink. it's probably been in the government's works for awhile now, but they didn't have a cost effective way to get the satellites in orbit. it seemed weird how fast musk was able to 'design and build' those things.
