YT blocking ad blockers.12th October 2023 For me, they were blocking everything (monetized or not (including sleep ones and ones for my cat)) and all of those videos and channels will now play without being blocked. It seems they are randomly trying different methods in different areas and with d*snip* |

ASM/GDI Sprite Test11th October 2023 Thanks. Damn, That's better than what I get. Tomorrow when I have time, I will post a 500,000 sprite compile just for you to test to satisfy my curiosity. I am guessing you may get around 20-22 FPS with 500,000 sprites. |

Tonight, the ban seems to be gone and there is no warning or anything and YT is working normally as it has for years and years. Issue is now they pissed me off enough I will not use it anymore.

Machine Made Max10th October 2023 That is incredibly realistic. It lacks emotion and would not be good for things like audio books or commercials, but for topical news or articles it would be ideal. |

YT blocking ad blockers.10th October 2023 I am not in a position where I can afford $13.99 per month for even one account. Google tracks all we do on almost any site we visit and sells that info.

YT blocking ad blockers.10th October 2023 What is bad for creators is even if they choose not to monetize their account/videos, YT still places ads on them and keeps 100% of the money. |

YT blocking ad blockers.9th October 2023 Fred put ads on PureBasic forums. When he first put them up it was using Bing ads. Irony was the Bing ads would crash Internet Explorer for some folks. |
