YouTube Cracks Down On Monetized AI Slop With Incoming Policy Update

https://metalinjection.net/news/youtube-cracks-down-on-monetized-ai-slop-with-incoming-policy-update

 

Chrome disabled uBlock Origin... Anyone else use Brave? As I understand it's a fork of Chrome so I'm guessing devtools still work the same there? Curious if it hooks up to the existing password manager - I have LastPass (boo) as well but probably still a good amount of PWs saved in chrome along with all the other account info it stores (CCs, google profile, etc). Was able to get uBlock working again for now but guessing I'll eventually just need to switch browsers.

 

I use AdBlock Plus, which still works fairly well, especially on Youtube

 

yeah I used to use it, idk if it's still the case but Adblock plus had some problems like they have a paid whitelist (so companies can pay to bypass). Kind of sketch. If uBlock stops working completely I'll go back though as long as it works.

As a side note it's always jarring when ad blockers stop working and I see how horrible using the web is without one lol.

 

I did switch to Firefox for a while, but it has overloading/slowing issues once you open enough tabs, unlike Chrome (at least for me)
