I believe YouTube is going to start detecting ad blockers, and there will be an arms race

heard its on chromium based browsers. just hope it does not come to Firefox.

So what you're saying is that YouTube will become incompatible with firefox?

[–] HughJanus@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Not hard to disguise the browser you're using. I use Mullvad (Firefox fork) and it will show up as Chrome on the host side.

I haven't seen it happen on Brave browser yet. We'll see how long that holds up.
