[tor-talk] U-tube new-er denial criteria?

[bo0od]

- Complain to google which owns youtube and tell them to allow Tor 
traffic (because this is not Tor issue).

- Use one of the instance from Invidious project:(or build your own 
instance)

https://github.com/iv-org/invidious/wiki/Invidious-Instances

- Not anonymity option (but i think watching youtube/google is already 
anonymity fuck due to Javascript): Use VPN (whether your own server or 
subscribing to a company). You can combine Tor with VPN as you -> Tor -> 
VPN. Again not anonymity option just circumvent the issue of Tor 
blockage done by youtube/google.
