So this started coming up today. On every video. I can (so far) click the “x” and remove it to watch (still see 2 ads before the video, and one after 4 minutes - ruins music on YT), but did click the “Report issue” only for the dialogue box not to work.
I found a link to a that said 11% use adblock. Thats not a lot.Maaayyyybe there is a problem with the amount of ads youtube forces down our throats for even short videos. 🤷♂️
No it’s not. If an ad break comes up on tv and to avoid them you go for a pee or get some snacks, no sane person would call that piracy. It’s pretty much the same with youtube, I could just leave the room while an ad plays. Adblock just automates the task of not watching the ad.
The ad is served which is what counts and you can not ignore it or not ignore it, doesn’t matter as long as it is served. adblock makes it so the ad is never served in the first place, circumventing the “payment” for the content, as in “piracy”.
