YT ads

Used req2proto (https://github.com/ddd/req2proto) to get current gRPC definition

issue with bc-def script making stringify non-configurable before uBO scriptlets run

yt does Object.assign({}, [fetch request], { body: [json to fetch] }) - can do smth with Object.assign?

can do this as a userscript

Object.realAssign = Object.assign;
Object.assign = function(a,b,c) {
    let ret = Object.realAssign.apply(this, arguments);
    if (arguments.length === 3 && typeof c === "object" && c.body) {
        ret.body = c.body.replace(/"contentPlaybackContext":{/, '"contentPlaybackContext":{"isInlinePlaybackNoAd":true,');
    }
    return ret;
}

safer

try {
Object.realAssign = Object.assign;
Object.assign = function(a,b,c) {
    let ret = Object.realAssign.apply(this, arguments);
    try {
        if (arguments.length === 3 && typeof c === "object" && c.body) {
            ret.body = c.body.replace(/"contentPlaybackContext":{/, '"contentPlaybackContext":{"isInlinePlaybackNoAd":true,');
        }
    } catch (e) {}
    return ret;
}
} catch (e) {}

// one-lined
try {Object.realAssign=Object.assign;Object.assign=function(a,b,c) {let ret = Object.realAssign.apply(this, arguments);try {if (arguments.length === 3 && typeof c === "object" && c.body) {ret.body = c.body.replace(/"contentPlaybackContext":{/, '"contentPlaybackContext":{"isInlinePlaybackNoAd":true,');}} catch (e) {}return ret;}} catch (e) {}

I don't get bc-def when logged out now
- sometimes I do though, seems random
