Does anyone know how we can come out from this?

One option would be to watch YouTube via Invidious - a pretty good idea to protect your #privacy as well!

This at least works for now, but Google is also trying to kill Invidious:

If you are in Europe, do file a complaint against #YouTube.

Under EU law they are not allowed to deploy #adblock detection technologies.

Boosted for reach but unfortunately I cannot participate because I'm from a country that decided to pull out of the EU

I mean ... ads are OK-ish of they pay for the content and as long as they don't track or are used for malvertising. So if sides change this removing adblockers sounds fine to me.
But until then, I think #adnauseam is a nice tool to filter (non-)tracking ads and poisen the trackingdata.

We can also use this latest app developed from #louisrossman and #futo in response to YouTube banning invidious instances and also #opensource called GrayJay.

With a motto to Follow Creators, Not Platforms.

Link: grayjay.app/

like invidious we can also use piped for #privacy.

It lists a bunch of uBlock Origin filters which I also use currently - and works for me (for now, at least until YouTube patches this).

The best future proof Solution would be, use YouTube less and at some Point don't use it at all anymore.

Make use of other Platforms that are free from Corporate greed, like PeerTube or similar.

Urge your favorite Creators to take Action and also use/upload elsewhere.

That would be the first Step on a longer Journey of freeing the Internet from greedy Companies. πŸ˜‰
