youtube is different lately

for one thing, it keeps telling me I can't watch until I disable my ad blocker and that never happened before. I don't have an ad blocker on my Chromebook so WTF. I have clicked on the options and none of them work. this was never a thing until recently.

(so far I deal with it by opening up an incognito window and then it doesn't happen)

I'm watching Nick Zentner live this morning and people in the chat are reporting a TON of ads on replay when there didn't used to be any. and Nick says he gets NONE of that money so I'm more than a little about that.
