Youtube - more idiocy
  • The showinfo parameter, which indicates whether the player should display information like the video title and uploader before the video starts playing, is also being deprecated. Following the change, the channel avatar and video title will always display before playback begins, when playback is paused, and when playback ends. The avatar being displayed is new behavior that will be consistent across all embedded players.

    I like as idiots begin to rule as they want.

    No one is at fault that some Google developers just do not have anything else to do.

  • The behavior for the rel parameter is changing on or after September 25, 2018. The effect of the change is that you will not be able to disable related videos.

    Another bad change by YouTube.

    Actually, main goal for disabling rel, as well as doing all other design change is to push necessary, big channels even more.

    Plus just simple interest - they will clearly allow to get it back - but for big money, if you are business.
