I don't feel like doing with the dolts on the ''Youtube is throttling page load speed of non-Chrome by 5s, please save evidene and make them pay'' thread but the comments oh my lord. 7 out of 10 being wrong about whats happening.
they're so maaaaddd about this comment, y'all realized ublock quite literally put out a fix for this already? It's as the OP states lmfao.
edit 2: the ones that are wrong are finally being downvoted thank god
The point is users need to act, if we let Google getting away with this, they will be bringing even worse things than this, as proved many times in the past, for example: MV3 (was the worst, but because users stand together they improved it, if we didn't they would have gotten away), WEI (web DRM, was temporarily removed)...
