"Sign In to Confirm You Are Not A Bot" (on Youtube videos)

[happybird]

I can see the videos in threads, the actual opening still shot (or whatever it’s called). but after tapping Play this message comes up. Tapping on the “Learn More” button just leads to a blank screen. I am signed into both DU and YouTube so don’t know how to fix this, or why it started appearing?

Weird.

Sometimes it takes more than once but eventually it plays. Annoying to say the least.

When I tell people I’m not voting for trump, they say Oh, you’re not a Robot. Works every time.

11. I click on the three dots at the top left of the video and it says copy link. I copy the link put it in google and I get

right to the video. It's annoying not to be able to just click on the play arrow
