The thing is, if they get really stupid with it I could just go ahead and install pi hole. I haven't already because it's a bit of a fiddle on and I don't apparently don't need it yet. There's no way for the government to mandate against that, unless they actually want to ban me from owning a computer, Which obviously won't really work.
Pihole hasn't worked with YouTube in almost a decade. They changed their ad service to their own domain, so there isn't any way to distinguish between an ad and a regular video on the domain level that pihole uses.
