This sounds like a good idea, so no doubt next week you’ll need to show a copy of your passport to buy an erotic novel instead as that’s a much better use of government and civil servants time.
TIL People actually see youtube adverts, think ‘That sounds like a good thing to spend my money on’ and spend money on that thing!
To summarise;
Now they’ve taken an inch, the mile is next.
Weird to even type this out that I’m actually hoping YT will stick to it’s guns on this matter. Fuck the BBC, Lib Dems and this whole ‘protect the children’ bullshit. At least the article hit the nail on the head somewhat with the real reason;
People aren’t following the traditional news and becoming harder to approach through TV which frightens them.
YouTube can’t show ads at all to users in Albania. VPN users might find this information interesting.
Maybe this shit will all be worth it if they get around to banning tiktok
The problem is a load of the reputable companies fled from YouTube after various pressure campaigns from the think of the children lot. That only leaves scammers and other nonsense left to advertise on there, at least half the ads I get on there are obvious scams on some way or another.
