So most of you probably noticed the majority of embedded youtube videos failed to load. This is apparently because we were disabling referrer strings being sent to YT and it threw a hissyfit about not being able to spy on users for most its videos.
Essentially your browser (with this website's blessing) will now disclose that embedded videos are being viewed from "niggasin.space" (but will not specify the specific page, or anything about your identity on this site) to youtube when you view a video. If you're logged into a google account in your browser, google can correlate this request with your google account (potentially a problem if you're logged into your employer's gsuite shit). If you aren't comfortable with the security implication here, there is a "Enable videos embedded in posts" setting which you can find on your profile page. If you turn this off, "embedded" videos will be rendered as a simple link which won't disclose this information unless clicked, and even then your browser's referrer settings can alter the behavior.
Which is kind of a bitch move on YT's part but w/e, at least now embedded videos work again if you want them to.

we truly cannot afford to hire lanny as a developer he is a big bucksier and is so highly skilled that he chooses what projects he wants to work on and they beg him to come on board but he says "NO thank you" fixes their code and then goes and brews another barrel of whiskey and cooks a home cooked italian dish just like his mamamia used to make "STIR THAT PASTA SAUCE SO IT DOESN'T BURN I'LL SOAK THE NOODLES IN BEER"
(yes, I stalk his github)

this could be a problem in the near future if and when google-judetube decided to restrict access to it from "deviant" and "blasphemous" (against niggers) sites and start filltering domain names.

I thought this was already happening. Have I been living in a parallel world?

Sometimes I get advertisements for things I mention on nis. So they either know my identity here or are tracking my phone keypad.

Yes, although I can’t do it for users, it’s a browser behavior. Chrome has an extension for it here:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/referer-control/hnkcfpcejkafcihlgbojoidoihckciin and is probably a good idea just in general. But then chrome is funneling your browser history to Google anyway so I’m not sure how much good it’ll do you. But definitely a good idea if you’re not using a CIA browser.
