And it will be for the worse

So YouTube has recently put on the clown makeup and done something stupid

The World Wide Web’s most extensive repository of vlogger apology videos has been caught A/B testing what could become the cringiest feature to ever disgrace the surface of the Internet: an ad blocker ban.

This is great news if you work for “RAID: Shadow Legends” though.

It’s true, friends. After years of overindulgence, Cat Video Inc. is finally doing to YouTube browsing what Tabasco sauce does to dildo riding. Completely fucking ruin the user experience.

YouTube has already made a statement about it

As soon as the news got a bit of traction on Reddit, a YouTube employee came out and said that “it was just an experiment.”

And look, I would love to go into a brow-wiping phew! at the sound of the word “experiment” there, but far too many lab mice have died of artificial ulcers and prototype shampoos under that word for it to be anywhere near soothing.
