Comment on YouTube ads are about to get even longer and they’ll be unskippable - Dexerto

It is Albania. I will say that it’s more correct to say that YouTube chooses not to send ads to Albania, rather than Albania banning it.
Albanians anti ad laws state that ads are required to be safe for children, with the platform being responsible for failure… So Google is not spending the effort to make the ads safe.

I didn’t know it is the other way around (Albania ban vs. YouTube not playing ads)! Thanks for elaborating.
