Comment on YouTube's plan backfires, people are installing better ad blockers
yukichigai@kbin.social 1 year agoSponsors don't pay the creator less if you skip the sponsor segment. That's not tracked, at least not in a way that google will share with the creator or anyone else. If that changes someday, sure, you have a point. For now skipping the sponsor segment is as harmless as skipping through the commercials on TV.
