Today I filed a formal complaint against #YouTube with the Irish Data Protection Commissioner for their illegal deployment of #adblock detection technologies.
Under Article 5(3) of 2002/58/EC YouTube are legally obligated to obtain consent before storing or accessing information already stored on an end user's terminal equipment unless it is strictly necessary for the provisions of the requested service.
In 2016 the EU Commission confirmed in writing that adblock detection requires consent.

Hey thanks for the update friend! I checked meta the other day after you were down for a few hours, but didn’t see any posts about it at the time.
the site being down was due to the storage being full and then needing to move over to object storage https://mastodon.social/@programming_dev/111237442491837823
