YouTube Responds Quickly: YouTube Ads ByPass Dot Is Fixed, the trick doesn’t work anymore

YouTube has quickly responded to the simple hack discovered by a user a few days ago, the hack allowed users to bypass the YouTube advertising on the platform by simply placing the dot after the letter m of .com.

Earlier it was reported that users can enjoy YouTube videos without advertising, the hack was quite simple to follow as explained in this blog post. However, YouTube is out there listening to the voices and the words on the internet, the company has quickly responded to the bug and fixed it in no time.

Now the users would not be able to watch YouTube videos without advertising on them, as you can see in the featured image, the dot is placed after the domain youtube.com just like youtube.com. but this extra period doesn’t help anymore.
