there's one simple way to make anti-circumvention type attacks on software freedom and closing of apis backfire:

never upload anything there again, mention alternatives, deactivate account.

and suck'em dry with the existing tools, if it applies to the platform, e.g. #adtube.

going after free software devs means no holds barred, in my value system it's beyond the pale and it cannot be otherwise – free culture wins or the copywrong world wins.

and it's also highly advisable to cancel any account with drm pushers like netflix, for the same reason, IMO ...

there are other ways to watch movies, that don't play into the hands of surveillance capitalism in the same way. it's not worth it!
