I’m not in a position to look into it right now, but is there a part of the EULA that gives consent to detect ad blockers, and would that be good enough for the law referenced?
No, consent can’t be hidden in tos
Saw this pic floating around.
Their obvious solution to this is make you consent to it or you can’t use YouTube.
which isn’t GDPR-compliant. you can’t force people to accept tracking if the service doesn’t require it to work.
Does it count as tracking though? What private or personal data is it? I’d also say that it’s at the very least grey area since all they’re doing is trying to prevent people from using their service in unintended ways, ie without ads.

Thanks!
The picture was shared on other social media sites, I did not see it mentioned in Lemmy or similar.
