Youtube.com browser

If you visit Google's YouTube website in private browsing / incognito mode, you will get the company's cookies and data prompt each time you do so. The reason for that is simple: since private browsing modes don't save cookies across sessions, YouTube cannot read cookies set previously and assumes that you have not given your agreement yet for cookie handling on the site. ADVERTISEMENT The same happens to users who clear cookies regularly, either from within the browser or by using third-party tools. The "whole" cookie consent system on the Internet is broken, and part of that can be attributed to the number of prompts that users see when they visit sites on the Internet. A standardized feature that is implemented in the browser that informs sites automatically about the user's preferences would be a better solution. For now, users face usability issues while browsing the Internet. We published a Today, we would like to provide you with a much simpler solution for YouTube. If you check the site in private browsing mode, you may notice that even though you are loading youtube.com in the browser, you are redirected to consent.youtube.com automatically. Once you accept the prompt and allow Google to use cookies and data on the site, you are redirected to the real YouTube site and can start using it. What if, you'd block cookies on consent.youtube.com? Google cannot set cookies then because the browser denies it. A great thing happens when you do, as you are automatically redi...

Apps are great, but desktop experiences and mobile experiences are not equal. There’s benefits to using a desktop site, and the good news is you can easily visit the YouTube desktop site with Chrome, or any other browser, very easily. If you’re wondering why you should be using the desktop site for YouTube, we’ll show you how easy it is and what special features you’ll be enjoying.
