Because they’re a monopoly and should get nationalized to ensure they align with the citizens rather than with the greedy shareholders.

I use Firefox with uBO on Windows and it doesn’t help. I tried installing filters I found online but they don’t do shit.

I’ll just install FreeTube.

I just have my phone always silenced except for phone calls from contacts.

Each time it offers to translate a page, there’s a “Never translate from [LANGUAGE]” button.

Stage 2: it works and you feel the dread that you won’t hunt that bug down until it crashes prod.
