I don't usually frequent this particular forum, so not sure if this is the right place for this discussion, but I guess a moderator can move it to a more appropriate forum if this isn't it.
Anyway, I'm noticing as of today, YouTube won't allow me to watch any video unless I sign in to prove I'm not a bot. This happening to anyone else? I don't have a YouTube account, never seen the need to get one. Gonna suck if I got to sign up for one now just to watch videos, as that is the main hub on the internet to watch short stuff.
I did a Google search that didn't really turn up anything about this, most of the results were just related to the content you need to sign in to prove your age to watch. So anyone have any insight into this? Is this permanent? Have bots become that much of an issue for YouTube? Should I just stop being a dinosaur and sign up for a YouTube account?
EDIT: Never mind. Turns out there was an issue with my computer which has been resolved.
