His argument is:

A lot of people were using poor adblockers.
Youtube can block the bad ones but struggles with the good ones.
People switch to the better adblockers (some of which require a subscription)

I'm hearing first time that some of the adblockers require subscription... Like, there's ublock origin, the one and only god out there, why would you like to go somewhere else, even closed source?

Edit: damn autocorrect
