What youtube doesn't understand is that we don't need them - they need us. If I am forced to sit through ONE single ad, I will simply stop using Youtube until the ads go away.
For those who don't have an effective way to adblock, they now serve five unskippable advertisements instead of two maybe skippable ones every few minutes.
I am convinced that they're making the free experience so annoying you'll beg to pay. Eventually they give up the pretense and paywall all of it with advertising.

Then eventually slip in ads on the paid version. Because why not.
