No they’re just forcing him to watch ads
Yeah, of course. They clearly force him to type "YouTube.com" in his browser and to press enter afterwards.
He’s not forced to go to YouTube.com, he wants to watch YouTube videos. He’s forced to watch ads on those videos.
Well, sometimes you have to make choices: videos+ ads or nothing. Vote with your wallet, if you are to do so.
Yeah no, neither of those. I think they’ll continue watching YouTube videos without the ads
That's fine, if they're able to do so. That's why I wrote "sometimes". I frankly fail to understand people's addiction to YT. What's more, Id really like all those crap YT, Twitch and the likes to disappear for good and go back to "written" internet. In this shitty era, a lot of useful info is actually buried in a crap load of self promotion and blabbering on those platforms (which I refuse to use).
