All of this? What is this? Not believing people when they tell you something?
And the most interesting part, like I said, was that it doesn't bother when it is google docs. So what is google protecting exactly? That is the main point.
YouTube pays people by the amount of views they get on their videos. It thinks you’re a bot used to farm views. The fact that you always nope out when it asks you to prove your not a bot makes them think you definitely are a bot.

Youtube can go fuck themselves.
