Yeah signed in on Firefox (No VPN needed), it doesn't seem to work with adblock plus or anything like that, the one (I think) that works the best is uBlock Origin extension

Ok nice one I'll have a look at that.

From what I remember, if I'm logged into Google Chrome, but NOT logged into YouTube (ie; no account) then I *think* that I don't see ads - it's when you are logged into YouTube with a YouTube account that it insists that you adhere to their terms and conditions and demands you switch your ad-blocked off.

Just been playing with it - with no YouTube account and Ghostery is blocking all ads.

They both went in high, that's factually correct, both tried to play the ball at height.  Doku with his foot, Mac Allister with his chest.

I switched from Chrome now to Firefox, much better and totally used to it after a few mins

Yeah so confirmed it - if you aren't logged onto Youtube and have an ad-blocker, you're good.

What kind of marketing decision is it to encourage people not to have an account :D

Did you get uBlock Origins Andy? I haven't seen an ad on anything in years with it.
