Does anyone use Tampermonkey?

The way I found tampermonkey was that it was the only adblock left that youtube couldn't detect, but it's not working anymore

Youtube keeps refreshing despite having disabled all adblocking extensions

I can't watch videos with ads - they keep briefly showing the "youtube crying people use adblock" page and refreshes and this keeps repeating on a loop. I don't have this problem on videos that do not have an add at the start. I have removed all adblocking extensions from chrome but it still keeps happening.

Any ideas on how to fix this

Overriding The YT AdBlocker Extension detection

Hello bois,

just put this code on your chrome <console> in dev tools. and YT won't be able to detect your AdBlocker.

// Function to hide the presence of certain extensions

(function() {

// Hide Chrome extension variables

var originalQuery = Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(window, 'chrome').get;

Object.defineProperty(window, 'chrome', {

get: function() {

var chromeObj = originalQuery.apply(this, arguments);

// Hide the extensions property

delete chromeObj.runtime;

return chromeObj;

}

});

// Hide WebRTC (often used by privacy extensions)

var originalRTCPeerConnection = window.RTCPeerConnection;

window.RTCPeerConnection = function() {

var pc = new originalRTCPeerConnection(arguments);

// Modify RTCPeerConnection prototype to hide extensions

pc.createDataChannel = function() {

var dc = pc.createDataChannel.apply(pc, arguments);

Object.defineProperty(dc, 'id', {value: 'hidden'});

return dc;

};

return pc;

};

// Hide common extension-related variables

var hiddenProperties = ['__REACT_DEVTOOLS_GLOBAL_HOOK__', '__VUE_DEVTOOLS_GLOBAL_HOOK__'];

hiddenProperties.forEach(function(property) {

Object.defineProperty(window, property, {

get: function() { return undefined; },

set: function() {}

});

});

// Clean up manifest references in DOM

var observer = new MutationObserver(function(mutations) {

mutations.forEach(function(mutation) {

mutation.addedNodes.forEach(function(node) {

if (node.nodeType === 1 && node.nodeName === 'LINK' && node.rel === 'manifest') {

node.parentNode.removeChild(node);

}

});

});

});

observer.observe(document.documentElement, {childList: true, subtree: true});

// Remove existing manifest links

document.querySelectorAll('link[rel="manifest"]').forEach(function(node) {

node.parentNode.removeChild(node);

});

})();

Easy way to skip ads on a iphone

I still use an iPhone 10 so ymmv. If you want to skip ads as lazily as possible (no hardware or software installation needed) here’s what I’ve been doing for years.

Firstly, DO NOT use the app, it makes this strategy void. Use YouTube on the safari browser. When an ad plays on the video, refresh the page and it’s gone. Simple as that.

I'm experiencing different adblocking behavior between PC and MacOS

I use Firefox, and normally run a combination of UBlock Origin and Disconnect on both my personal PC and work Macbook. I have all of my Firefox profile settings and extensions synced, so the browser environment on both computers should be exactly the same save for possible under the hood differences due to the different OS.

However, I've just started experiencing an issue ONLY on my PC, for both Crunchyroll (which I HAVE a subscription to) and Hulu (which I have the basic with ads subscription), where the the media fails to load with with some error code. On my Macbook though, there's... no issues with playing things on either site.

I'm pretty sure the issue is related to these sites detecting the adblockers and denying me access (despite the fact that I pay for Crunchyroll), but I'm puzzled as to why this is only affecting my PC and not my Mac. Does anyone know anything about why there's this discrepancy, and/or how I might fix this issue on my PC?

Streamer Cleaner for Twitch is apparently working again, but maybe not for everyone?

Reactivated the Stream Cleaner extension to see if anything's changed, and lo & behold it's working once again. The little text box on the upper left corner pops up saying "blocking ads..." For how long this will last, who knows?

The reviews at the Chrome store suggest results will vary, with some users saying it's doing its job while others say it does nothing. In any regards, it's worth a try. Just letting people know.

Adblockers still letting ads through

I have been using a million different youtube ablockers and they technically work, but they still let some weird ads through. I can't describe it very well, but I'll load a video and there will be some type of preloaded ad that's like, 30 seconds long for example. After a bit of loading the ad never plays, but the video will start at around 30 seconds. The loading doesn't last 30 seconds and it stays consistent with the video starting at the same length of the ad. Does anyone know how to fix this, or has anyone else experienced this problem?

Youtube de facto Adblock with only VPN

I’ve discovered that with the right VPN you can get a de facto adblock without any of YouTubes nastiness. I’m currently connected to NordVPNs Bhutan server, and since Bhutan is a tiny country with next to no economy, there aren’t (m)any advertisers, so I’ve been watching Youtube for week now without a single ad.

I tried it and loved how there's no more ads everywhere but noticed sometimes it does get choppy but that could also be because I run YouTube on highest resolution+ football manager+ marvel snap almost all the time

but noticed ublock origin has more votes in every sub

will I need to uninstall abP first to try ublock origin?

Step-by-Step Guide to Setting Up Pi-hole with a Router Lacking DNS Options

1. Install Pi-hole and Assign a Static IP

  • Install Pi-hole: Follow the official installation guide from Pi-hole’s website.
  • Assign a Static IP: During installation, Pi-hole will prompt you to set a static IP. Ensure this IP is within your network's range and not conflicting with other devices.

2. Access the Pi-hole Web Interface

  • Open a browser and navigate to http://<pi-hole-ip-address>/admin.
  • Log in using the password provided during installation or configured later.

3. Configure DHCP Settings in Pi-hole

  • Navigate to DHCP Settings: Go to Settings -> DHCP.
  • Enable DHCP Server: Check the box to enable the DHCP server.
  • Enter Router IP and IP Range:
    • Router IP Address: Enter your router's IP address.
    • IP Range: Copy the DHCP range from your router settings and enter it here. For example, if your router's DHCP range is 192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254, enter the same range.

4. Advanced DHCP Settings

  • Enable DHCPv4 Rapid Commit: Check the box for "Enable DHCPv4 rapid commit (fast address assignment)".
  • Enable IPv6 Support: Check the box for "Enable IPv6 support (SLAAC + RA)".

5. Set Static DHCP Leases

  • Navigate to DHCP Leases: Scroll down to the "Static DHCP Leases Configuration".
  • Add Static Lease for Router:
    • If you dont know anything about Static Addresses, scroll down, there is a section for it.
    • Static MAC Address of Router: Enter the STATIC MAC address of your router. This information is typically found in your router's settings or on a label on the device. This step is crucial to ensure your router consistently gets the same IP address.
    • STATIC IP Address of Router: Enter the IP address of your router. Using the static IP of your router here is essential for proper network configuration.
    • You can also enter the normal (dynamic) IP of your router to be thorough. (Just to be safe)
    • Static IP of Pi-hole: Also add the static IP of your Pi-hole to ensure it remains consistent. (Just to be safe)
  • Click the + button to add the entry and then Save.

6. Configure DNS Settings in Pi-hole

  • Navigate to DNS Settings: Go to Settings -> DNS.
  • Upstream DNS Servers:
    • Add the static IP address of your router as one of the upstream DNS servers. It is very important to use the static IP of your router here to ensure reliable DNS resolution.
    • You may also add the static IP of your Pi-hole (this is optional, but can be done if needed). (Just to be safe)
    • You may also add other DNS servers (e.g., Google DNS, OpenDNS) if needed.
  • Check the relevant boxes to enable these servers.
  • Conditional Forwarding (optional):
    • If you want to resolve local hostnames, enable conditional forwarding.
    • Enter your router’s IP and local domain name.

7. Restart Pi-hole or DHCP Server

  • Restart Pi-hole: Restart the Pi-hole device to ensure it recognizes and applies the new settings. You can do this through the Pi-hole web interface or by rebooting the device.
  • Restart DHCP Server:
    • Router DHCP Server: Temporarily disable and then re-enable the DHCP server on your router. This action forces the router to recognize the Pi-hole as the DHCP server. Do not permanently disable it yet; just turn it off and then back on until it recognizes the Pi-hole.
    • Pi-hole DHCP Server: Ensure the Pi-hole DHCP server is enabled and running.

8. Finalizing Configuration

  • Double-check all entries for accuracy.
  • Click Save to apply the settings.

Verification and Troubleshooting

  1. Restart Devices: Restart your router and any connected devices to ensure they receive the new DHCP settings.
  2. Check Pi-hole Logs: Look at the Pi-hole query logs to confirm that DNS requests are being routed through Pi-hole.
  3. Test Connectivity: Ensure internet connectivity on all devices. Use nslookup or dig to verify that DNS queries are being handled by Pi-hole.

Notes

  • Leave Router DHCP Enabled Initially: Leave the DHCP server on the router enabled initially. Temporarily disable and re-enable it to ensure it recognizes the Pi-hole.
  • Static IP and MAC Address Importance: Keeping Pi-hole’s IP static and ensuring the router’s Static and IP MAC address is correctly entered are crucial steps. These ensure that the router consistently gets the same IP address and that DNS resolution remains reliable.
  • Permanently Disable Router DHCP (Optional): Once Pi-hole is recognized as the DHCP server and everything is working correctly, you can consider permanently disabling the DHCP server on your router to avoid conflicts.
  • Include Normal IP of Router: You can also enter the normal (dynamic) IP of your router in the Static DHCP leases configuration settings. Maybe very important to get the PI even working on your Router (You see it green in the Queries after some time) (Just to be safe)
  • Or easy, just buy a router with DNS Options (Asus, etc...)

Only important if you dont know what static and dynamic Router address are otherwise ignore it:

Edit : Static MAC and IP of the router : If you're confused about what I mean by static and dynamic IP, MAC addresses of the router...:

In your router's network settings, you'll likely find an option to view your Static IP for the Router. Additionally, there will be a STATIC MAC address associated with its STATIC IP, which is different from the dynamically assigned IP and MAC of the Router.

The IP address of the static assignment is usually longer and unique for each router (STATIC). It's crucial to use this specific STATIC MAC address and STATIC IP OF THE ROUTER when configuring static DHCP leases in Pi-hole, rather than the MAC address associated with the dynamically assigned IP.

This ensures that the router consistently receives the same IP address from Pi-hole. So, instead of using the IP "192.168.0.1", you should use the Static IP of your ROUTER along with its corresponding STATIC MAC address found in your router's settings.

This way, your Pi-hole works automatically on all devices that connect to your WLAN. If you have a second router, you can TRY and SHOULD adding the Pi-hole's static IP to DNS settings; however, typically, all traffic runs through the FIRST router and should be filtered accordingly. Ensure to perform these configurations also on your 2nd Router (if you have one) and on your MAIN router.

Locate Router's Network Settings: Access your router's administration panel through a web browser. Typically, you can do this by entering your router's IP address (usually something like "192.168.0.1") into the address bar. Log in using your router's username and password.

  1. Find Static IP for the Router: Look for an option related to network settings or LAN settings. Within this section, you should find an option for finding the Static IP of your router. This static IP address will be used to ensure consistency in network configurations.
  2. Identify Static MAC Address: Alongside the static IP address, you'll also find a MAC address associated with it. This MAC address is unique to your router and is used to identify it on the network. Make note of this MAC address as you'll need it later.
  3. Configure Static DHCP Lease in Pi-hole: Access the Pi-hole web interface and navigate to the DHCP settings. Find the section for setting static DHCP leases. Here, you'll add an entry for your router.
  4. Enter Router's Static MAC and IP: In the static DHCP lease configuration, enter the MAC address you found earlier along with the static IP address assigned to your router. This ensures that your router always receives the same IP address from Pi-hole.
  5. Update DNS Settings in Pi-hole: Navigate to the DNS settings in the Pi-hole web interface. Add the static IP address of your router as one of the upstream DNS servers. This ensures reliable DNS resolution for your network.
  6. Verify Configuration: Double-check all entries for accuracy. Ensure that you've used the correct static IP address and MAC address for your router.
  7. Save Settings and Test: Click save to apply the settings. Restart your Pi-hole device to ensure it recognizes and applies the new settings. You can also restart your router for good measure.

Is AdGuard a good solution to Manifest V3?

Considering google is deprecating mv2 next month, I've been looking for alternatives. Firefox works great for me 99% of the time, but the few minor annoyances are enough to make me not want to use it at all. I'm thinking about switching to AdGuard since it runs as an application and blocks ads at system level, so I don't think the rule limit would apply to it.

Any suggestions? What are your experiences with AdGuard?

Youtube adblock imprive performance

Improve performance for non paying users

For those who dont pay, youtube is slowing down the connection on purpose, as is the client side the one lagging, so is a programmed thing to happen, not a lack of resources thing. So to overcome this, theres a work arround. Basically it consists in using youtube external iframe for watching videos. This works bc the only way for youtube to detect you are using ad blocker is by looking at the cookies and the conections made in threir domain website. So they slowed the connection for all users that use their website youtube.com, just stop using it, and use an iframe in a local html file.

(Ios) Youtube with Ad Block & Sponsor Block

(Ios) Youtube with Ad Block & Sponsor Block

https://reddit.com/link/1cqj3to/video/1i2ku7gfe20d1/player

Hello Reddit, today I am showing how I use ad block, sponsor block and Untrap (Youtube content blocker) on Ios! This is done with the Orion Browser. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/orion-browser-by-kagi/id1484498200

(Skip to 0:51 to see Untrap in action)

Why?

I have been using Brave browser for a while to block ads but Sponsor Segments are more unpredictable and require an extension. I also don't like seeing my recommended feed and wasting time in it, so I like blocking it.

The added bonus is like brave, it comes with the ability to use picture in picture without premium when you fullscreen...nice! Today I will be using my iPad to show this off.

How to do it?

Use the three dot menu in the upper right hand corner and scroll down to enable Firefox and Chrome extensions. After that, its as easy as downloading from the web store.

https://preview.redd.it/4js7gnknf20d1.jpg?width=1426&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e66b897ee1e320f8ee0a70c4c92f4a27ac93e38c

If you know how to use extensions on pc, they are the same here. You just have to go back to the three dot menu and enable them under the extensions tab. (Most will pop out and let you adjust your settings like I show in the video)

In conclusion, please note that this is in its Beta phase and your milage may vary. I had to look around for a Youtube recommended blocker that would work with the mobile version of the site. These extensions can be used on any website, I just focused on Youtube here.

Block "Sponsored", "Suggested for you" and "Recommended" posts on Facebook

Block "Sponsored", "Suggested for you" and "Recommended" posts on Facebook

Hi all!

So Facebook has a lot of crap posts in it's timeline that I would like to get rid off.

Adblock Plus allows us to block some content by XPATH
https://help.adblockplus.org/hc/en-us/articles/360060928614-Getting-started-with-XPath-filters

Here are filters to block those posts:

Sponsored

facebook.com#$#hide-if-matches-xpath '//a[starts-with(@href, "/ads/about")]/../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../..'

Suggested for you

facebook.com#$#hide-if-matches-xpath '//*[contains(text(),"Suggested for you")]/../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../..'

Recommended (contains Follow button)

facebook.com#$#hide-if-matches-xpath '//a[starts-with(@href, "/ads/about")]/../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../../..'

aaa is 🎮 playing bbb

I didn't find XPATH that would work on this.
Something like //span[contains(text(), 'is') and contains(text(), 'playing')] shoud work but it doesn't.

Blocking Suggested posts doesn't work reliably, probably because FB is a very messy and menstruous html. It shows up and disappears when you mouse hover over Suggested element.

Examples:

Adblocks that work for Spotify on IOS?

Hello, I'm trying to (and struggling) to find an adblocker that works for Spotify on IOS. Spotify won't let me listen to music on Safari (I'm unsure if other browsers will let me) so I need one that works with the app. I tried Luna but heard that it'll steal my info n shit so I got rid of it. I'd also prefer not to mod Spotify bcuz I don't wanna risk my Spotify account being banned.

What’s this new extension ?

What’s this new extension ?

I have to re-activate Adblock every time I refresh or change page (which in this end means no Adblock) and I don’t know what’s the extension this message is talking about

uBlock Origin Element Picker differs than Element Zapper

Use this URL (https://www.colamanga.com/manga-wp55334/1/1.html) as a test.

Notice that when you enter, if you have uBlock Origin, you'd have "contents" and "layers" that's preventing you to scroll.

Using Picker, I was able to block most of it

www.colamanga.com##.layui-layer-content > div > h1

www.colamanga.com##.layui-layer-content > div > p

www.colamanga.com##.layui-layer-content > div

www.colamanga.com###layui-layer-shade3

www.colamanga.com###layui-layer-shade2

But when I tried shade1 (www.colamanga.com###layui-layer-shade1), I wasn't able to scroll down. However using Element Zapper, I was able to click it off and then I'm good in viewing the web.

May I know what did I need to do to put it in my filter so that I don't have to manually select 'element zapper' to remove shade1?

Thanks!

This is why I use adblock

So I had an interview I'm really excited about and things are looking pretty good like I might get it. So this evening my fiance and I were going to have a little... private celebration, but left her phone playing YouTube in the background. Things were progressing well until an ad came on:

"My mother recently went to the hospital and had to have poop surgically removed from her colon"

That's how the ad started, and our soiree ended; as abruptly as a 737 in a false MCAS activation. I could be dying of snoosnoo right now but instead she's asleep for work tomorrow after we laughed for a solid 15 minutes and I'm bitching on here. Seriously though wtf? Like, why start off with that?

I made a working Youtube Adblock - Desktop & mobile (with background play!)

I made a working Youtube Adblock - Desktop & mobile (with background play!)

So lately I've been pretty annoyed as Youtube have successfully stopped most adblockers from working (or they only work sometimes). I'm a bit over reading the adblock threads, deleting my history and cookies, updating my userscripts and all that...

I'm a programmer by trade so decided to try and fix this mess for everyone.

I ended up making a free little plugin called "GoodTube" that I'd like to share with you all.

It works for both desktop and mobile (with background play enabled, so you can turn off your screen and keep listening!)

Here's a few of the features;

  • Removes video and page ads.
  • Removes shorts.
  • Loads Youtube videos from different sources into a pretty decent player clone.
  • Removes unwanted search results ("You might also like this", "Other people also watched", etc).
  • Allows you to download the Audio or Video directly with a button at the bottom of the player!
  • Much more (covered further down).

All major browsers are supported - Chrome, Firefox, Opera, etc.

If your adblocker is working, by all means continue to use it, but if not - give this a try!

It's easy enough to install, all the instructions are below.

Here's some screenshots:

How to install on Desktop

Install this browser extension "Tampermonkey":

https://www.tampermonkey.net/

Once that's done, simply click on this link and press "Install":

https://github.com/goodtube4u/goodtube/raw/main/goodtube.user.js

That's it. You're good to go. Open up Youtube and happy days.

Please note: If you're using Firefox, videos will not autoplay until you change the following setting:

How to install on Android (mobile)

This will take you a few minutes, because mobiles are generally sort of annoying...

Just follow the steps below and I promise it'll work for you! :)

  • First off you'll need to install this app called "Firefox Nightly". You can find it on Google Play. (Basically it's an official release of Firefox, but it also allows you to install browser extensions.)
  • Once it's installed, open Firefox Nightly. Now click the 3 dots down the bottom right, and go to "Settings":

https://preview.redd.it/m9kpzymzvvyc1.png?width=390&format=png&auto=webp&s=7648c746dc6fade83169ab4371d6827bca9043e8

  • Scroll down and go to "Extensions":

https://preview.redd.it/t920s550wvyc1.png?width=390&format=png&auto=webp&s=bebb9414fa51a3ebe0cf07d45ff44dfeb398dede

  • Add the extension "Tampermonkey":

https://preview.redd.it/4hc821o0wvyc1.png?width=390&format=png&auto=webp&s=7e19f1727298308dba05f9ff980036e81c8e0a76

That's it. You're good to go. Open up Youtube in Firefox Nightly and happy days!!

I recommend using Firefox Nightly just like you would the Youtube app. Put it on your home screen somewhere / make Youtube the homepage for an even smoother experience :)

Please note: If you see a mostly blank screen on the Youtube homepage, don't worry! This is normal. Just search for something.

Simply sign into Youtube and the homepage will be full of your favorite videos once again.

How to install on iPhone (mobile)

This will take you a few minutes, because mobiles are generally sort of annoying...

Just follow the steps below and I promise it'll work for you! :)

  • First off you'll need to install this app called "Kiwi Browser". You can find it on the App Store. (Basically it's a Google Chrome clone, but it also allows you to install browser extensions.)
  • Once it's installed, open Kiwi Browser. Now click the 3 dots up the top right, and go to "Extensions":

https://preview.redd.it/jacc3ffiwvyc1.png?width=390&format=png&auto=webp&s=8240dc0427c8de18a9e877968b4015fdb3d02c14

  • Click "from store":

  • Search for and add the extension "Tampermonkey":

https://preview.redd.it/8tct5srjwvyc1.png?width=390&format=png&auto=webp&s=b4dbdc931799d7cb98c1f81fb1cdbba3743bb12b

That's it. You're good to go. Open up Youtube in Kiwi Browser and happy days!!

Please note: If you see a mostly blank screen on the Youtube homepage, don't worry! This is normal. Just search for something.

Full feature list

  • ZERO ADS.
  • The beloved algorithm / watch history and all that stuff still works.
  • Keyboard shortcuts work.
  • Subtitles work.
  • Shorts are removed.
  • Unwated search results are removed.
  • Autoplay is supported.
  • Playlists are supported.
  • Thumbnails for other recommended videos that pop up when a video finishes are removed (I really hate these, try without it's nice).
  • You can download the video or audio straight from the player! There's a little button at the bottom of the video to do it.
  • It'll tell you when there's an update and give you a little button that installs the latest version.

Coming soon

  • Currently servers will not give 1080p. Working on it, should be available pretty soon.
  • Chapters are not yet supported, but again - working on it and should be done soon.

Why?

I'll never pay a company that is slapping ads on one of the largest archives of music / film / art in the world and blackmailing me to remove them. They really have a social responsibility that isn't being taken seriously...

So anyway, screw em. Install this little plugin and enjoy no ads 🎉

Other stuff

This took around 3 weeks to create and a thousand black coffees. I hope you enjoy it.

The code is free and open source. You're welcome to copy and change it as you see fit! Here's the Github repo:
https://github.com/goodtube4u/goodtube

Any questions, problems, etc - let me know! Peace out homies.

p.s. Sorry for the re-post. Reddit seems to like deleting my posts? Almost like they're in with Youtube...

Should I feel bad for using YT revanced on my phone?

Long time youtube watcher here. I noticed during covid the ads on my Samsung Android Yt ads were getting a bit, intrusive to say the least. I'd be in the middle of a 20 minute video, I'd watch the first skippable ad, the promotion, then be interrupted all the sudden in the middle of the video.

I finally got fed up with it and found Revanced. Oh my God. It's so much better. I can do background play, return dislikes, all these positives.

Should I feel bad for using an adblocker on my phone? I probably do around 30 hours of YT a week between background podcasts and active watching. Thanks.

Can you get rid of the sponsored ad on the right side of youtube right above your recommended videos?

This was never a problem before the past week or so, but I look over at my "up next" area- and it's just an ad now.

Block reddit ads

I was only using old.reddit.com before and didnt have issues with ads.

Now I have switched to www.reddit.com because generally I like the new design now that ive actually used it better than old, although it has its quirks.

But now I see all kinds of ads ("promtoed posts").

I am on Firefox and already use ublock orign. (Desktop)

Any way to block them with origin?

Why does not work AdBlocker in the following situation?

I have already installed Adblock for Google Chrome and I wanted to watch a film. So, it reproduces the first 5 seconds (only the logo of the movie studios) and then, an ad in which I have to register for seeing the entire movie.

What doesn't it work in this case? Thanks for reading.

I just thought of a hopefully less stupid idea

Instead of trying to invent an alternate funding model for the internet other than advertisements or paywalling everything, what if everything was crowdfunded at least on YouTube and other similar platforms? Personally I find patreon plugs to be more palatable than third-party ads because the contribution is given to you as an option instead of shoved down your throat.

Stop the annoying mobile game ads!?!

Well we have all been there, playing one of the million free mobile games but the nonstop ads popping up every other minute makes this experience far less enjoyable... Well I think I have accidenatly found a way to get rid of them (andoid only as far as I know)! Activate developer's mode on your android - settings -> about phone -> build number and tap tap tap x7 . Then back to settings -> all the way down to Developers options- under apps -> don't keep activities-> on. It worked for me, but it also will disable ability to play optional ads that offer rewards (some games). Hope it works for you guys as well!

"Otherwise we would have to charge you" Is this even legal?

This website has recently installed a crazy amount of ads even full non-stoppable videos. I activated my adblocker (uBlock) and this showed instead of the video claiminig they will charge me. Is this even legal? In that case how could they proceed to "charge" me?

Youtube AdFree on LG TV now has ads

Youtube on my TV was unusable due to the crazy amount of ads. So I enabled dev mode, added webOS Homebrew Channel, and installed YouTube Ad Free.

It's been great for the past year, but now it suddenly has ads as well. It's a new ad UI so Youtube has clearly found a workaround.
