Comment on YouTube is increasing Premium prices in multiple countries, right after an ad-blocker crackdown | You either pay rightfully for the video content you consume, or you live with the ads.

  That doesn’t work AFAIK. It only works when the ads are served by a 3rd party.

    Yep. I tried doing this with Hulu’s self-serving ads and I blocked enough domains that it just quit working

  Doesn’t work. I have network wide DNS filtering, but that alone doesn’t stop YT ads.

  If you have a link to a GitHub host file for that, I’d definitely take a peak.

  Otherwise, uBlock and *Pipe apps.

  Try blocking the ads.
  You will block the video serving domains as well :)

  YT/Google aint that stupid and knows how to bundle both for your convenience.
