YouTube is waging a war against adblockers...and losing.
  • YouTube is intensifying efforts to combat adblockers, including blocking video playback and warning users of potential account suspension.
  • Increased ads on YouTube have driven many users to adblockers, hurting both YouTube’s ad revenue and content creators reliant on ad-based income.
  • Despite these measures, many users are leaving YouTube or finding workarounds, leading creators to seek alternative revenue streams off-platform.

    Yeah, that’s a lot. As a comparison: My connected family of 5 hits 1.3TB-1.5TB on a monthly basis. Streaming apps in 4K/Dolby Vision and Atmos, YT, gaming, FaceTiming constantly on 500/500 fiber.
