This exactly!
Comment on YouTube isn't happy you're using ad blockers — and it's doing something about it

I mean, I just get ads for drain cleaner, dog dewormer and metamucil.
I must be boring.

My 6yo gets a ton of ads for insurance, about the same amount as for toys. It’s weird.

I used to get these all the time. Haven’t seen one in almost a year now. I wonder what happened for them to so strongly disassociate something with me? I wish I knew so that I could weaponize it.

You could always spice it up and see what you get.
I use VPNs and ad blockers where I can / when they work. I also have an extension that makes my Internet traffic useless by sending random data. When I need to go to the official YouTube app and get ads I get a smorgasbord. Right now they seem to think I’m either a recently divorced middle aged man with ED who just discovered they are actually a balding gay man or a teenaged girl with period problems and a desperate need for a social media following. Neither of these even come close but it’s always entertaining to see what I get.
