YouTube is in hot water over allegations that it has been #spying on users in order to detect and block ad blockers. A privacy expert is filing a #criminal complaint against #YouTube in #Europe, arguing that the company's actions violate Ireland's computer abuse law. Apparently, YouTube has been using scripts to detect ad blockers on users' devices, which some argue is a form of surveillance. It's a pretty serious charge, and if proven true, it could have serious implications for YouTube's reputation and business model. Have you encountered any issues with ad blockers being detected on YouTube?
