Google is also getting pretty aggressive about blocking people with ad blockers from YouTube. I think it is great. I ad-block everywhere, but if people don’t want me around for that reason, that’s their right. If I wanted to watch short videos, I’d actually have to become a paying customer somewhere!
As people have said in this very thread, people are using Ublock Origin Lite, which blocks display ads and youtube ads. Which is all 99% of users care about.
