02:27 - Why was youtube slower in firefox in 2018?
03:08 - My shame
03:33 - Did history repeat itself?
04:55 - The complaint is that this is only having to firefox users
05:15 - Does it happen when I turn off adblock?
05:40 - It shows me this code in stock chrome with no extensions installed on that page
07:20 - Results: Chrome, Brave, and Firefox load at the same speed
07:45 - I can't confirm this because Google is rolling out different code to different peple
08:18 - The three likely scenarios
08:31 - Scenario 1
08:48 - Scenario 2
09:43 - Scenario 3
10:00 - The part that will make you all mad, even though it's true
10:32 - Why it's true
11:18 - The bizarro world
11:44 - You don't pay people with "exposure"
13:20 - Whether this is a great way to earn paying customers is a separate issue from whether it's legal
15:34 - Which scenario is the one that is happening, I have no idea.
