Yeah, that’s why I’m really curious about how this will play out. I just hope that people will be the ones benefiting from this shitshow and not Youtube.
So then they’ll just embed them into the video, refuse to serve the video until the time is up, etc. Running clientside snooping scripts is only one way for them to enforce this. The idea that EU law will somehow force YouTube to just serving you content without ads is entirely copium.
So? Let them make those changes then. That’s additional complexity and effort. They absolutely scoped that implementation against the one they chose and chose not to do it. Forcing them to spend the effort is still meaningful.
It might actually be illegal in the EU for them to run scripts to detect ad blockers without asking permission first.
