YouTube is going to lose this battle lol.
Both from a legal standpoint and the fact that adblockers WILL adapt
So, they’ve already won. They just haven’t turned on the nuclear option yet.
They recently added what amounts to drm for the entire Internet to chrome, it is a way for them to disallow access to YouTube and other services via anything but an approved browser. This would include approved extensions.
So I’ll use something that isn’t chrome? Well, they will just block Firefox from YouTube. Making chrome and chrome derivatives via its Internet drm the only option.
A monopoly trying to lock in browsers isn’t going to last in the EU.
Or even the US. Microsoft lost that one in the late 90s.
