Why youtube doesn't make you disable adblock like many other illegal streaming sites? There's have to be a reason, because hypothetically they can
>>
Because they would piss off a lot of people all at once and people would just block the adblock blocker anyway.
>>
>>58873961
They already do, by delivering ads through the same domain as the website itself. This means the ads that play before and during videos can't be blocked via traditional methods anymore.
>>
>>58874089
Really? I haven't seen a Youtube ad in ages.
>>
>>58874116
I'm blocking ads through my router and the video ads still show. Not that I care, and if I did I'd just use youtube-dl.
>>
>>58874192
use uBlock or some shit.

Never see an ad
>>
>>58874089
What year are you living in, nigga. Ad blockers haven't been host-based only for at least a decade. Unless you're on a phone. Tough luck then.
>>
ublock origin on my android phone works fine as long as i dont use the youtube app
>>
>>58873961
The newest tricks of the advertisers are even worse. Paying the YouTubers directly to insert ads into the video. They are not ads server by Google which can be blocked. They are part of the main video.
And people fall for it even easier. Since if that YouTuber they like so much personally advertises it, it has to be good, right?

Fuck I hate the advertisement industry.
>>
>>58873961
Because they already get enough money from selling their users data.
>>
Because you're a fucking retard. Kill yourself.
>>
Denying access to people using adblock would decrease the views of sponsored content and product placement, which can't be blocked, and Google would end up losing money. Probably. I don't know.
>>
>>58873961
Its simple. Google knows their audience extremely well. They know that someone who is going to block the ads is someone who wouldn't buy their shit in the first place.

When is the last time anyone from /g/ bought something from youtube?
>>
>>58875360
>decrease the views of sponsored content and product placement
Wouldn't those be deals between the youtube """""stars""""" and companies, with no google involved?
>>
Speaking of Youtube and adblock, my adblock is not blocking Youtube ads anymore since a couple days ago.
Anyone know what I could tell adblock to block to get rid of them again?
>>
>>58874354
Stop watching shitty youtubers like linuscucktips.
>>
>>58874354
this desu
>>
>>58876457
Update your damn extensions and lists
>>
>>58873961
Why doesn't shitposterings makes use of gooder English?
>>
>>58874211
I'm using ublock origin with all the lists enabled, and I do see ads sometimes, albeit very rarely.
>>
Why is AB+ on Chrome so shitty?
>still get some ads and redirects on porn sites
>recently had even a YouTube ad slip through
>no list of blockable elements

On Firefox, AB+ blocks absolutely everything, no questions asked. Both are subscribed to "easy list". I would try Ublock or whatever, but it's supposedly just using the same lists anyway?
>>
>>58877663
> using AB+
There's your problem. Just switch. That's mostly the criticism why we use uBlock.
>>
>>58877170
Perché non vai affanculo dio cane?
>>
>>58877730
I'm gonna try it, but I was led to believe it's basically the same thing anyway.
>>
>blocking ads
yeah lets not support content creators lol
>>
>>58877730
Ublock is garbage too. Doesn't block basically anything on porn sites.

They've started to experiment with ads like on my pic, the one to the left wasn't an annotation or part of the video and whatever I did scriptblock/adblock/ublock etc I couldn't remove it.
>>
>>58877621
I started seeing ads this week
ublock origin with a shitton of lists
>>
>>58879285
apparently I had it disabled for the youtube.com domain
I am retarded
>>
>>58874354
>hate the advertisement industry
kinda hard too.
it's the only reason we have all this good content on the Internet, including this website
>>
>>58873961

google operates youtube at a loss. literally all they give a shit about youtube for is spying on you/seeing what kind of shit you watch. if they tried to make people get rid of ad block, then some other youtube alternative would make a play off the backlash and google would lose out on users to spy on. their primary concern with youtube is just staying top dog in terms of internet videos, actually making money directly from youtube is secondary
>>
>>58874354

but if its directly in the video, can't you just skip the ad?
>>
>>58875547
google gets ~50% of any """star"""s ad revenue

too much of a brainlet to have checked that
>>
>>58879517
I approve of these type of ads. I don't like seeing them, but I can trust they aren't going to try and fuck my shit up.
