Forgiving oneself

Hopefully this video helps people, it seems like it could be quite a helpful thing:

Spoiler: psych2go video - Spoiler added upon user request

I am going to put out there something you should know and I wouldn't expect other people to know.

Every time someone posts a video like that one here, it loads all of YouTube's tracking protocols, including trying to determine WebGL, and then links that to a user's IP origination.

So if you are using Chrome to access SaSu and you see a random video about forgiveness from YouTube and watch it, and then if you start seeing ads about mental health recovery, anti-depressants, and better health while watching YouTube, that is not random. It means YouTube determined who you are, that you are suicidal, and has monetized that. It is also very unclear where that data goes and it may be sold to many other partners and even governments.

It's a good video, but it's not behind anything to prevent it from loading automatically and doesn't warn people.

In your defense, people who don't have anti-tracking policies in place and use Chrome are already so fucked anyway that it may not matter.

Ooo, didn't consider that, added the spoiler tag. This should also reduce bandwidth used by people who wouldn't click the video.
