So did I. I'm fighting it because what you think you Googled as correct is not entirely accurate.

No, I mainly use YouTube on my PC where I have adblock anyway. And I also don't watch much YouTube to begin with. And I prefer Spotify. And there are extensions for downloading from YouTube on the rare occasions I'd want to. It'd be a waste of money.

You telling me about your supposed "network guy" that oh btw I don't know isn't confirming a thing lol.
It's about as valid as me saying the same thing along with my uncle who works at the NSA.

You telling me you talked to some guy is completely worthless information.

You also didn't provide a source of your own. You just provided some copy pasta from some unknown source you didn't care to provide and lord knows if even credible at that. But here you are demanding me to?

I do. I realized that I barely used Spotify Premium and used YT a ton, and it just made sense to unsubscribe to Spotify.

And I've tried the ad-free apps, and none of them are as intuitive as the main app.

Did you actually stop to thoroughly read those pages? It's very much appearing as though you did not.

All of them describe actions from the user that caused it. Like visiting unknown websites or sketchy websites intentionally or unintentionally causing this malware to download. It can even be through websites you thought was the legit thing as there's plenty websites put there that look like the real deal.

If you have s*** installing on your device from watching a YT video, it's because of something you or someone else on your device did to your device.

The idea that it just installed itself isn't entirely accurate. Something you or another user on that device did, has caused this even if you are unaware you or another user clicked on something they shouldn't have.

So weird that that asdf guy is so resistant to information lol. Also, I too thought Asherlee closed her account for some reason. But I hadn't posted on CE for years until the pandemic brought me back.

I'm in cyber as well.

You still aren't providing anything that isn't the user causing it, from ONLY watching a YT video and doing absolutely nothing else. Regardless if intentional or unintentional there's more to it than only the YT video that caused it even if those actions were the result of one user, another user, today, or even last night.

Visiting phishing websites for example, would fall directly into the category I was talking about earlier. Visiting some website you thought was Facebook or even visiting websites like PornHub where security is very relaxed, yes can result in the activity you are talking about. Which is why I said it is not entirely accurate that malware can just install itself.

Doubt it. I forsee you being back, that or this appeal to numbers you got going on.

I can say the same with on this being bizarre. You cited some guy you know (the equivalent of my uncle who works at Nintendo), to later then cite yourself, as if any of those things make your claim true. Then when you cite an actual website, you completely ignore the websites you are posting are not entirely accurate to what you are claiming like I said from the jump.

This is taken from Kaspersky (a cybersecurity company).

What is a Drive by Download Attack?
A drive-by download attack refers to the unintentional download of malicious code to your computer or mobile device that leaves you open to a cyberattack. You don't have to click on anything, press download, or open a malicious email attachment to become infected.

A drive-by download can take advantage of an app, operating system, or web browser that contains security flaws due to unsuccessful updates or lack of updates. Unlike many other types of cyberattack, a drive-by doesn't rely on the user to do anything to actively enable the attack.

How Do Drive by Download Attacks Work?
If youve ever asked yourself, what is a drive by download attack? youre more aware than most. Since they infiltrate so quietly even on safe sites, most people have no clue how they got infected.
There are two main ways malicious drive by downloads get into your devices:
1. Authorized without knowing full implications: You take an action leading to infection, such as clicking a link on a deceptive fake security alert or downloading a Trojan.

2. Fully unauthorized without any notification: You visit a site and get infected without any prompts or further action. These downloads can be anywhere, even legitimate sites.

You already lost the argument when you expressed concern about using an ad blocker to block ads. All I'm going to say on that.

That's like saying someone is at fault for suffering a blown tire while driving a clear and open road and they happen to run over a nail

"Uh, shouldn't have been driving then, it's your fault!"

I simply don't click on them.

I don't ever click on YT adds, or really any ads for that matter.
Not good enough since when ads load thats enough for them to run scripts even if you dont click them

She didn't respond to you. Now you're just harassing. Because trolling wasn't good enough on its own.

$15AU is too expensive for how relatively little I use the service. Maybe if they bundled it in with a Drive subscription, then I might consider.

While it's not going to happen from YouTube video ads specifically? It can absolutely happen on even non-sketchy sites, sometimes malware ads slip through. There's a reason why I use both an ad blocker and an add on that blocks scripts from running without my approval.

It may not be particularly likely at any given time that you'll be impacted by malware on a professional non-sketchy site through some ad that injects malware but it absolutely is possible and it's not paranoia when you have people putting up walls to block such things.

I remember now that I had a Google music account before the merger but it's under a sub profile.

Any way to merge it with my main YouTube profile? I uploaded a lot of music to it which I'd still listen to

I remember when I told you why I left CE so long ago it was something about, "everyone is made worse for having gone there" and I still maintain that.
I'm just going to lean into it in some aspects now.
