Ya, just an infrastructure where their ads have to go into blocks within the video (inserted wherever but tagged as such)
Comment on YouTube Seems to Be Cracking Down on a VPN-Powered Discount
magic_lobster_party@kbin.run 1 week agoI don’t think it’s an unpopular opinion, but I’m not sure how YouTube can deal with it best. There’s sponsor block, but it’s relying on crowdsourced data.

Force the creator to flag the sponsor section and then filter it out. Then compensate the creator for the view using the $17 premium subscription.

The creator is already compensated as of now. They earn more if a premium user watches their video than a free user with YouTube ads.
So the sponsor is giving them more money regardless of whether the user is premium or not.
