I just have my phone as my designated privacy nightmare because I'm cheap and whatsapp lets me make free phonecalls. My computer and browser on the other hand are so loaded up with privacy measures that if I don't log into youtube it literally breaks and shows no videos because the algorithm has no data to workt with.
This is not how YouTube works...
Its how youtube says youtube works. It says it can't find any video history and just shows nothing. The page is still entierly functional and I can directly search things (or login to get suggestions) but it won't show me anything on its own.
