Fully blocking only if you aren’t using uBlock Origin, which you just have to update the filters on.
Complete waste of effort.
Alphabet needs to be broken up.
I would imagine that most people aren’t on YouTube except when people send them links to videos. Once they deactivate their ad blocker to watch a three minute cat video and get four preroll ads and a couple of midrolls they’ll immediately turn their ad blocker off or just never come back.
This diminishes engagement, doing the exact opposite of what they’re trying to accomplish.
By all accounts YouTube is profitable, it’s just owned by greedy cunts.
Gotta wonder how long whatever idiot executive came up with this idea is actually going to last. This is the kind of thing that gets you shitcanned whenever you ignore the CTO that tells you all it will do is piss people off, lower engagement, waste time, waste money, and never generate worthy ROI.
