 > But do we have a youtube link to click on the error page?

 no! they even take it out of the url, the meenies.
 it happens randomly, independent of the video, so it seems it is linked to
 the exit node. once it starts happening, it will happen for all youtube
 links you click, but it is not possible to change the circuit if you don't
 have the URL open, and you get immediately forwarded to another domain.

 > Maybe we can have a "Go back one page with new Tor circuit" in the
 hamburger menu?

 I am not sure how that will work, with the session information and that. i
 thought on something *before* because I feel they can see the referrals
 etc.


 not sure about this working. i have tried to reclick on the link and the
 private tab and also changing the circuit on the error page, but i could
 not get past this error on TBB in Tails.
