🇬🇧YouTube wants to force us into surveillance advertising and tracking with an anti-adblock wall. Unacceptable to me as a MEP! That's why I asked the EU Commission today to check the legality of adblock detection under the ePrivacy directive.
Thanks Alexander Hanff.

There 's a simple solution : New Pipe, newpipe.net/
Their only flaw is the lack of a web application. I suppose they have already been asked to develop it.

@echo_pbreyer what about this illegal behavior by Meta: either pay to not have your data used for targeted ads, or consent to it being used. there's no way to use Meta products without paying money or with your data.
