And I’m sure it’s annoying you too. You can’t view a single YouTube video anymore anywhere one is posted, without that stupid notification popping up. Which forces you to have to go to the shitty YouTube site, log in, hope through whatever verification checks that there is and finally, you can watch the video.
Isn’t there a way anymore where people can just link videos and for them to play? Fuck you, Google.
It’s a necessary evil sadly. The internet is so overrun with bots that if there wasn’t a captcha or those cloudflare “click here to pass” buttons, the internet would implode.
OP isn’t trying to post, just trying to view. There is no justification for a captcha there.
The justification, security wise, is that they can’t really tell what the intent is when OP connects.
The other justification is that they also want to be able to track you via an account.
Well besides forcing you to ID your self by showing sundar the creep your buthole finger print
There is, AI bots are scraping the entire internet and overloading servers by downloading everything. That’s literally why every website is adding captchas and hiding behind Cloudflare now.
Edit: just so you know, downvoting me doesn’t change actual facts
Huh, and yet yt to mp4/3 websites work flawlessly on all videos and music. Either both humans and bots get to see it or Noone at all.
Or it’s just a shit system that doesn’t work entirely correctly. Which is evidently the case considering how inundated with bots YT is.
