The next thing after DRM will be ARM (Attention Rights Management). The camera will be used to verify that you are paying attention to the ads, otherwise no content for you.
This is how the ADHD Freedom Fighters are born. One day, we will cast off the shackles of
The will to finish a sentence is weak with this one
Youtube already has ARM! If you watch a playlist and go AFK youll get a "are you still watching?" message and the video pauses
I completely agree. That being said, it could be pretty easily argued that they want to save on server costs or something about model training accuracy on your watch history degrading due to you not deciding what to watch
Itβs server costs, same reason that discord ends calls with only one person after a few minutes.
Or they just make you take a quiz after the ad. If you get any questions wrong, then you have to watch another ad.
The scary part of what you just said is how I esealy see one of those corpos reading your comment and thinking "good idea why didn't I think of that".

Ok, now calm down there satan...
Not trying to make it sound like it wouldn't be a really bad thing but it would be pretty easy to circumvent. Just emulate a webcam that only shows a static image of some random dude staring into the camera. That one image of Linus would be perfect for that.
Unless they check to see if the image is moving, which in the basic case would be easy to do. Of course, that can be defeated by substituting the still image with a short loop (presumably edited to eliminate any discontinuities), but that just escalates the arms race. Eventually, using an ad-funded website would involve volunteering one of your GPU cores to run a machine-learning model for authenticating camera video, and thatβs just the price, along with accepting tracking cookies and disabling ad blockers.
Drink a verification can.....
Ads aren't DRM.
