YouTube disallowing adblockers, Reddit charging for API usage, Twitter blocking non-registered users. These events happen almost at the same time. Is this one of the effects of the tech bubble burst?

It’s even worse than that. The ad is often a fake version of the website you are looking for. Ublock protects you from phishing and malware.
It’s even worse than that, Facebook and Google have been selling “impressions” that are actually bots for decades at this point.
Very often do I have to bypass the wrong links as well for competitor services I wasn’t looking for, because I explicitly wrote the service I had chosen.
