Remove all of the Chrome adblockers from the store (they are perfectly available anyways
Take them down like they do with the youtube mirrors
If they manage to come back and upgrade, yt will make sure to evolve their algorithm and blocking power...until they all reach a bottleneck and there's nothing the adblockers can do.
Twitter already surpassed discords ability to embed tweets now. The ability to embed tweets is now in Musk's mercy. YT is next to roost.
Finally, if things do go that bad, then there won't be any reason to be online anymore.
You have nowhere else to go anyways.
we have half a dozen alt tech video sites now.
The big tech gods still have more than enough fuel (attention) to run rampant, and that is enough to spell doom for you. The alt sites do nothing to solve the problem at hand because people keep feeding the Big Tech gods anyways, plus nobody uses them save for the exiles and are likely also honeypots.
Even then, Brave and Vivaldi both have built in ad blockers, and there's no way the FAGMAN mafia can get both the browsers and linux banned.
Lawsuits. Fear not they will modify it so it no longer affects youtube.
not true, the big tech bubble is already in the process of bursting... they might be able to prolong their stay with the AI fad for a tiny bit longer, but not a lot
Euphoria comes before the fall. Not them, you. If what you say is true, then why would everyone bar the political exiles still continue to use YT? They have nowhere to go, nowhere to hide. (Thank google for that)
Also any "alternate sites" are likely honeypots. We already have BitChute BLOCKED IN THE EUROPEAN UNION.
Wrong
To put simply nobody uses the alternative sites. Good luck getting people (actual people, not far left radicals and government shills) to move there.
Who the fuck will use anything Chromium-based if concerned about privacy and safety?

What do you mean under "youtube mirrors"?

This could be the case if you don't control your OS and software. But if you do, there is no any way they could prevent you from using adblockers. Because you don't "look content on the website", you always download content to your computer and then your software show that downloaded content to you.
If you don't own your computer, and it is not your computer and software - it is only your fault, nobody's else.
Twitter already surpassed discords ability to embed tweets now.
Why do you need to embed anything from third-party corporation controlled site into your pages in the first place? That is what hyperlinks was created for. It is very simple to just put a hyperlink to tweet/video/whatever you mentioned and do not force user of your service to load tons of garbage and shit from fucking twitter servers.
That embedding shit is a direct and conscious help to the corporate media. Simple link is more than enough. Those who are interested will follow, those who are not will not be forced to that corporate shit.
Youtube has already figured it out basically. They are doing a rolling of the implementation meaning it will only be like another 6 months or something before they are doing it everywhere.
If it sees your skipping ads it blocks you from the service after 3 strikes.
Fuck em, thatll be the day I stop watching it.
I dont understand how the original team was able to profit without ads but google has to turn it into tv 2.0. Most of the content creators are sponsored and do their plug without the ad system. Why cant youtube go after their cut of that?
Fucking google, just as bad if not worse than microsoft.
Blocking the ad blockers is trivial, technologically. Keeping people using the site is hard, though, and they only make it harder, as they try to make it cable TV for the internet. Most people don't use ad blockers, though, and those that do will not put up with more than a few ads, before not watching the content on that site (unless the ads are forced to be sensible, like on Gab - it's not ads existing, but flashes, jump cuts, bright colors, -0.1dBFS audio, and content interruption). So, it makes the most business sense to just figure that ratio into the formulas for clicks, impressions, etc.. The only real problem that tends to arise is that tech channels can have a majority of viewers blocking ads - do you penalize them, or work with the site-wide average?
But, the PHB types will tell them to disable the ad blockers. Then, they get surprised Pikachu face when people use the site less, even those getting the ads.
They should really get into the sponsorship side of things, instead of normal ad serving. IE, if you do a sponsor segment, for $x, they get 20% or 30% of it, but no 3rd party ads will be injected into your content.

I already forgot when I saw ads on YouTube last lime.

Never had YT account. Don't care at all.
Fucking google, just as bad if not worse than microsoft.
Mice whine, prick themselves, but continue to chew cactus.
Somebody force you to use services you don't like? IDK, but AFAIK Google doesn't have a usage police that stay behind your shoulder and force you to use Google services.
Meanwhile I never had any accounts on anything from Google, and don't have any problems at all.
It's only a matter of time.
They can just
