I’m under the impression that Google deliberately hinders their YouTube platform just because you have ad-blockers. With videos taking time to buffer, seems to signal this, because it almost makes up nearly the amount of time for when ads take if you had to watch them. So since you’re ad-blocking and they don’t like that, they’ll make your experience miserable until you want to pay their service or not use ad-block.
and no other country wants to put harsher sanctions on russia, because he likely has krompromat on most leaders(besides his frenemies, like china and iran thats probably the one country he doesnt want to cross), plus paying for most if not all conservative government parties in many countries.
