For those who have not already heard of it, check out invidious: https://invidious.io/

A list of public instances (which you probably want to use if you're concerned about being identified) here: https://docs.invidious.io/instances/

Videos still get served by youtube. Maybe you know something I don't, but I wouldn't assume this is a way to get absolute anonymity against YT.

>>recurs+z9
Well, I don't know if there's any way to be absolutely anonymous on the internet.

It seems to me that there's still good reason to prefer using invidious on an instance used by many people as opposed to youtube directly. Can't make perfect the enemy of the good.

    Can't make perfect the enemy of the good. 

It's fine to recommend invidious as a safety against what happened in the article. But you should also point out that, by default, the videos are still served by Google and they see (and log) your view.
