    Good article. Rather than relying on uBo people should just stop using services they dislike (YouTube) and move to something else. Of course many people don’t want to change what they’re used to.

        well, since the debacle I was thinking: do I really need YT? What if I don’t access it at all, will my life become miserable? Nope, because YT is not something I NEED, just something I WANT. Once we realize that, it’s easy to look elsewhere, or even find something more productive to do.
