A screenshot of a YouTube video embedded in a news article where YouTube is throwing the error “Sign in to confirm you’re not a bot. This helps protect our community.” Stitched below is a screen grab from Avengers Endgame where Captain America says, “no, I don’t think I will.”
I’ve been getting this from yew tube and piped too.
I guess I’m done with videos?
SmartTube and NewPipe still work
I’m getting this error on NewPipe with my real ip address, but it’s working fine when I connect through Mullvad VPN.
What kind of device is that on? On my Samsung phone, it’s still working without a hitch, like SmartTube on my tv is…
Presumably it’s to stop video scraping for ai training
I would assume it’s to stop the likes of Invidious
I haven’t seen this live, but “to confirm you’re not a bot” really doesn’t sound like language YouTube would use
I think its brevity and down to earth, no nonsense message, easily interpretable by the normies, is why it won out in Alphabet’s endless discussions and revisions. (Everything there goes through like eight managers right?)
blech, someone without the ublock origin filter to block third party frames!?
But mah mobile
AdGuard doing the best it can… is it? Could enable another list 🤔
assuming you are using android, just use firefox + ublock origin
I wish, iOS!
UBO everything otherwise
