Remember when every billionaire apologist was telling us how no one would do shit like this when net neutrality was being gutted?
Not just YouTube. Now I have to say I'm not a robot when searching from my phone because I dare use a VPN that's not theirs.
Do you know the old saying:
if privacy is outlawed, only outlaws will have privacy.
Just because people might do stuff with things that isn't intended or even illegal doesn't mean you should be banning said things.
Otherwise we'd be in a world where we have no kitchen knives, axes, wrenches, food, money, cars, planes, ships, bikes, hands, feet - you know what I mean?
And guns.
