    look into Web Environment Integrity. This particular screenshot is probably fake, but it’s coming very soon.

      No, the screenshot is real, they’ve been testing it in selected regions for a little bit

      This has nothing to do with WEI. Google can do more than one shitty thing at once you know.

          WEI is a proposed modification to Chrome/Chromium that doesn’t even exist yet, and that would have the side effect of blocking adblockers on every site that implements WEI.

          This here is an already existing change to the YouTube service that blocks adblockers on YouTube, across all browsers, Firefox included. It does not use or need WEI to do this.
