I'm waiting to see Youtube block me using Vivaldi w/uBlock Origin on Linux so far. It hasn't happened, am I accidentally doing something awesome to evade their traps so far?

Vivaldi's Chrome-based, so I would presume the same tricks to detect uBlock Origin on Chrome itself would work, or is Vivaldi doing something sneaky?

I have no problem jumping to Firefox the moment they do it -- I just haven't had an issue yet. I should add I'm in Canada, perhaps that is a factor.

Firefox with uBlock Origin on Windows. Nothing so far.

I guess they only want to fuck their own customers so far?
