Agreed. I actually used Official Pale Moon for several years as my default. I went from IE6 to Official Firefox to Sleipnir to GreenBrowser to Official Pale Moon to Mypal to New Moon to 360Chrome to Ungoogled Chromium. With many MANY dozens upon DOZENS scattered throughout just for experimentation.

What I see is a bunch of "death to Google" folks complaining that the reason for the slowness is "Chromium-exclusive" features. This is pure BS, if I may be so bold. There really is no such thing as a "Chromium-exclusive" feature. ECMAScript is not owned or operated by Google! Google did not "write" ECMA-262. They only implemented it and "competed" with Mozilla and the rest of the "world" in HOW they would IMPLEMENT IT. Google did not "write" ECMAScript2015 (ES6). They only implemented it and "competed" with Mozilla and the rest of the "world" in HOW they would IMPLEMENT IT. Heck, as far as that goes, ECMA-262 "first edition" is dated June 1997. Google Chrome didn't even exist until 2008! It's all based on COMPETITION. Hating Google is no different than hating the New York Yankees or the Boston Celtics or the Green Bay Packers - people love to hate "winners" and root for the underdog instead.

I still use classic Teams via web browser. That overlay can be blocked with a custom style sheet. I've not tried to block in the "download-and-install" version of Teams.

Also look in Task Manager's SERVICES tab and disable what looks out of place.

Open regedit and look at your Run and RunOnce entries. Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce

It's been too long, but doesn't a "null modem" cable between server and PC1 and between server and PC2 accomplish this? Of course, I am assuming that all three are in the same "network closet".

Not only do I "pay attention" to cookies, but also the CONTENTS of those cookies! (which I cannot show "in full" because people that know how to use PROXOMITRON could then LOG IN AS ME on MSFN) By knowing how to modify the CONTENTS of cookies, I do not need separate "browser profiles" to (as an example) be logged into Gmail but NOT be logged into YouTube from within the same browser and same profile.

Bummer. I don't need the script often but it is nice to have as a just-in-case. I've bumped into the need here and there for videos that are NOT even age-related, rather just UNWARRANTED CENCORSHIP (ie, WOKE industries throwing an age-restriction on what their wokeness sees as "fake news" but the REAL world knows is *REAL* news!). Or just political SATIRE that the REAL world knows is *SATIRE*.

I personally forbid any of my extensions (or my browser, or my OS, or my text editor, et cetera) from auto-updating. My hunch (without inspecting the script) is that the SaveForm branding is easily disabled directly from within the extension's .js files. Just monitor DNS traffic when that banner pops up then look for that URL within the extension's .js files - I cite as "purely for educational purposes".

Same here, no use for it. So unless Dave-H is using it, I guess anything "legacy-related" is off-topic as far as the banner being discussed. I've been unable to replicate this banner. But if it *IS* related to savefrom.net script, I cannot seem to find a good source for it, seems it is basically "abandonware" for my region of the globe.

What is the "current" version of uBO Legacy? The only thing I can find is for FIREFOX. Maybe I assumed it, but I'm fairly certain that Dave-H's banner issue on YouTube is in Chrome-based and has nothing to do with Firefox.

You have do go all the way back to one version older than 1.32.0. Just how old does one go before you can start calling it "legacy" uBO?

More here -- https://www.reddit.com/r/youtube/comments/1fibmm6/why_am_i_getting_this_blurb_ai_summary_ad/?rdt=35830 It seems the issue is the savefrom.net script. Deactivate it and see if you still get the AI Blurb.

Do you use OrangeMonkey or savefrom.net extensions by chance?

No clue what that is or how to test for it.

All of that seems far too complicated. Not because it's "not easy", I don't mind "not easy". But because most people aren't going to sift through a read SEVEN pages long and add over a HUNDRED rules just to browse YouTube! I've never had to do ANY of that and I'm on YouTube 8-12hrs per day here at work. ZERO ads. ZERO banners. ( I do not get the cited banner even with all extensions disabled!) With nothing more than the already-included filter lists that come with uBO (well, with AdNauseum based on uBO). No added "my filters", no hunting down lists from "list sites", no hurdles to jump, no hoops to jump through. I don't even have to use any of the "annoyances" filters.

Your screencap shows that you are LOGGED IN to YouTube. I never actually log into YouTube (I go so far as to browse in Ungoogled with TWO profiles, one for "don't care about tracking", one for "block as much tracking as possible"). I YouTube from the "block as much tracking as possible" profile. Do you get this banner even if you are NOT logged in?

Unable to replicate. I can't find that banner anywhere.

That's an AWESOME timing for anybody with OCD!

That's how I am with all of my extensions. Meaning - TRUST NONE OF THEM! While I cannot claim to know "exactly" what every line of code does, there are certain things you learn to look for. VORAPIS V3 isn't the only "obfuscation". Dig through Tampermonkey's javascript. I'm not a big fan of Tampermonkey's "default" interface with the phone-home links and the "donation" CLUTTER, all are removed from my Tampermonkey experience. But you have to be careful, the code is "obfuscated" to the point that if you make what is considered a "normal hide" in any other code, you'd break Tampermonkey's functionality in non-related areas of the code.

Nope.

Version is not important. NONE will work in 360Chrome. NONE will work in Supermium. NONE will work in Thorium. NONE will work in Ungoogled Chromium. YOU MUST USE OFFICIAL CHROME OR OFFICIAL FIREFOX if you want Netflix to work with WINDOWS! There is no way around it because Netflix links a "browser" .sig file with your browser's Widevine .sig file. What you are trying to do is bybass the "browser" .sig file - this cannot be done in WINDOWS. It can, however, be done in LINUX. Only OFFICIAL CHROME and OFFICIAL FIREFOX have the MONEY to PAY for the .sig file! 360Chrome, Supermium, Thorium, and Ungoogled Chromium do not have the MONEY to PAY for the .sig file.

I have a strong hunch that PROXOMITRON can spoof this HEADER to make Netflix detect LINUX. But I myself have zero interest in Netflix via desktop computer. The concept of streaming video to a computer monitor versus a television over TWICE the size has always alluded me. "To each their own", of course.

To the best of my knowledge, YES, Netflix requires Widevine.

My newest YouTube script. People at work know where the "pause" button is on my keyboard. Coworkers think they can pause my background music. So this little script automatically hits the PLAY button three seconds after my music was paused. Becoming quite HILARIOUS when a coworker hits pause and the music turns itself back on with NO INTERACTION. // force Play button window.addEventListener('load', () => { var pollCC = setInterval(checkYTCC, 3000); function checkYTCC() { if (document.querySelector('[title="Play (k)"]').getAttribute('aria-pressed') !== 'false') { document.querySelector('[title="Play (k)"]').click(); } } });
