Today I've noticed some horizontal lines on youtube videos. Upon further investigation, I've traced it to a single div element:
The base64 encoded image is the lines I'm seeing.
Initially after starting a new private session and navigating straight to youtube.com I had no lines. Then in that private session same element doesn't have an image:
What's odd about this is if I opened a private window and copy pasted the same video URL I would get the lines. After testing multiple times I started getting the lines even after navigating straight to youtube.com.
So I did another test: changed my IP with a VPN in a private session. Navigated straight to youtube.com, watched multiple videos without any lines. Then I logged in to my account and boom, the lines are back...
Opening the same video on google chrome browser I get a smooth gradient line image:
The browser is functioning as intended, but youtube is intentionally making their website unusable. What the f###? I have youtube premium, adblocker disabled on their website.
