This is hardly the first time this sort of thing has happened. We'll probably just figure out another workaround like we have many times in the past.
~~Would Google know if you're using a DNS-level ad blocker? Probably not, so everyone can just move to that.~~
Edit: I forgot that Google serves ads from the same servers as the content, so DNS as blockers don't work...
Those don't work on Youtube, the videos and ads have been coming from the same domain for a while now.
More specifically it comes from a myriad of subdomains that they rotate all the time.
So how adblockers works then?
