   YouTube will start blocking third-party clients that don’t show ads

   Google would really like it if everyone just paid for YouTube Premium instead.

     @arstechnica if YouTube had a $4.99 plan with no ads, they wouldn’t have this problem

     @arstechnica Does anyone know of torrent trackers, where YouTube videos are getting uploaded regularly?

     @arstechnica with no skip-scenes, why not hovering over the thumbnail/preview when seaching (won't work with those suggested videos)

     but some do prevent previewing their's, it can CC-caption &un/-mute too, just: mostly subtitles in only on language

     saves seconds anyway in watching or not scrolling through its comments, not yet to fav. &it can rewind by the mouse at the bar, not sure how mobiles be handling that?
