    Folks, Just read the extra 55 words in the article. Most of you wont spend a dime on journalism of any kind, at least fully read the articles your interested in.

      Last year, YouTube “launched a global effort” to encourage users to allow ads while watching videos or upgrade to YouTube Premium. It also began disabling videos for users with an ad blocking extension enabled.

      “We only allow third-party apps to use our API when they follow our API Services Terms of Service,” YouTube says.

      To get around this, YouTube once again suggests signing up for the ad-free YouTube Premium.

      Not much gained tbh

      This bot is saving me from having to open the “article”, try to decipher SEO bullshit modern journalism just to find shitpost like this, eat some ads, and unavoidable (at least on mobile) trackers, js, etc. Also personally hate link posts, i wish people put this kind of summaries in the actual post.

      Just ignore/block the bot and move on.
