- First Reddit closes it's API
- Then ReadHat goes Closed Source
Now Youtube seems to double down
Am I the only one that sees a pattern there? What can we do against this madness?

This is not totally accurate, you can still get access to the source code but you have to have a subscription, it's still obliging to the letter to the GPL but not to the spirit of GPL. So technically RHEL is not closed source.

Yeah but they are asking so much for the api that even third party app developers can't even afford it and in that way putting third-party apps for Reddit out of play.Also, Reddit didn't close its API. They're just charging for some users of the API - which is pretty normal considering the costs incurred by Reddit. Mod tools, tools to help with disabilities, etc. will not be impacted by the change.

When you don't use a VPN, your internet traffic comes from your internet service provider. When you use a VPN your internet traffic is encrypted between your system and the VPN provider, but after that, the internet traffic looks the same, except that it comes and goes from the VPN provider's internet connections. From a website's point of view, it either comes from your house (no VPN) or it comes from the VPN provider's systems (when using the VPN).I use VPN.
Still hacked.
So I use double_vpn, plus one in extension making it triple.
My bank refused to serve me, maybe they think I am a hacker.
I agree. When I get home, I change the dealer's plate frame for a plain one. Four screws and done.Years ago a car salesman wanted to sell me the front plate with his dealership name on it (in Quebec you only need the rear one).
I refused. Paying them to do free advert for them ? No way.
