For me it’s the paranoia surrounding webcams. People outright refuse to own one and I understand, until they go on and on about how they’re being spied. Here’s the secret - unplug the damn thing when you think you won’t use it or haven’t used it in a while.
They, whoever it is, can’t really spy on you on something that’s already off and unplugged!
I hate the ad blocker argument for youtube. How am i supposed to do that on my tv or my phone?
The first two have web pages and phone apps. You can find the phone apps on F-droid.
Fun fact: did you know that the youtube app on your TV is just a no-effort web browser with a URL fixed to a web page, which you could even use on your PC?
Can I do any of these on FireTV?
Use smart tube on fire tv and other android tv devices: https://github.com/yuliskov/SmartTube
I literally just use normal Firefox with normal ublock origin on my phone
I mean, don’t you want less ads anyways?
There is no catchall solution that’s simple, take what you can get
