YouTube is running an experiment asking some users to disable their ad blockers or pay for a premium subscription, or they will not be allowed to watch videos.
They main problem I have with this is that we don’t have a decent alternative for youtube yet. The main reason I don’t want to pay for youtube is because it is Google. With YT premium you don’t buy privacy (logically you would say with removing ads you also remove the need to track people).

Yeah, that’s an excellent point. Youtube does have a monopoly for that. It would be nice if there were competition in the space.
