For those curious what “adblockers said really happened”:

[AdGuard] suggested that the issue may have been linked to popular community-maintained filter lists like EasyList and uBlock’s Quick Fixes.

A new filter rule added to EasyList on August 11, 2025 targeted telemetry requests thought to be tied to YouTube’s view attribution and analytics.

That rule remained in place until September 10, when it was temporarily disabled.

A similar change was added to uBlock’s Quick Fixes on September 10 and removed on September 17.

This has nothing to do with preventing people from talking about non-work topics and is entirely about silencing people who protest the ethically questionable (at best) actions the company makes in relation to said country. Not only that, but they involved themselves in politics by selling to organizations that are entirely involved with politics.

Edit: I would love to hear your rebuttal, rather than just downvoting everybody who has replied to you with no written response. It sounds like you have none otherwise.

Here’s the /s for those that didn’t click the link.

This is a meme, right?

EDIT: I read the OP and now realize what you mean. I’ll keep this here anyway.
