Popular Tech Youtuber Enderman looses his YouTube channel after AI error - Divisions by zero

I’ve been watching him since I think 2020. He made some of the best tech content of YouTube and I’ve never seen another individual have more knowledge of Windows internals than him. He was accused by Youtube in the past many times for spreading viruses in the description of some of his videos. This time it was a copyright violation of some random Japanese channel, with no relation to his channel. It is very possible this error was made by the new AI YouTube copyright detection bots. Please help spread this. RIP Enderman 2016-2025 [https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/pictrs/image/fdf1fdad-ee0e-4a87-bf2d-e3d83551d1b2.webp]

it’s funny how they also recently started to block all adblockers by not even loading videos at all just a day into US elections…

Firefox w/ uBlock Origin is still fine.

You’re right but I’m a LibreWolf guy myself. Firefox has been making too many shitty decisions (AI Integration things) for my liking.

uBlock works just fine for librewolf BTW.

Firefox lost me after they snuck ai bullshit into the browser and suddenly went from an efficient browser to dogshit tier right next to edge. If I need to about: config AND look up how to disable some garbage a dev shoehorned in… I’ll spend that time downloading a browser that doesnt forget its only job is to render the thing I clicked on as quickly and efficiently as possible. If I want something more I’ll use an add-on.

It suure does work a charm.

FF doesnt have money, when google turned off the tap. i assume they are introducing AI now, because google wants that data for AI as well, they might have come to angreement that is not privy to the public.

Sure. That’s fine. Get paid. Devs need to eat (I sure do.)

Did it have to be opt out? Did some of the settings need to be buried in about: config? Its not even remotely a shock to any internet denizen that AI isn’t openly loved by all. Put simply they opted to act first and apologise later. Actions have consequences. They likely had meetings and decided the money was worth upsetting people like me who would react negatively. I’m simply fulfilling my part of the equation.

They earned my trust and patronage by being more secure and faster - and principally “less evil” than rhe other guy.

And they lost it doing this.

If your adblocker stops working on YT: Update your adblocker.

Yesss, uBlock 1.67 to fix this new issue

that would require me to update my browser, which I can’t without updating my OS.

Windows XP forever!

That’s even worse

I don’t think windows 11 will work on my Pentium 3…

Any reason Linux isn’t an option? My devices that I ran Windows on end up running Linux in the long run because its been easier on aging hardware.

Many, many reasons.

Just had this problem today. Disabling the Ad Nauseam extension allowed videos to actually load, although now videos all stop at the one minute mark. I can work around it, but I’ll check to see if another extension is causing it when I have a chance.

Ublock origin has been good and Freetube the best experience when it is working. And there’s always switching VPN to Albania to not be shown ads.

well its not surprising, they said it during/right after 1/6 insurrection they would STOP BLOCKING ELECTION DENIAL content, this set up the precedence of all the AI RIGHT WING content we see on the site.
