That's strange. You'd think that because Google isn't going to remove in-video ads, that would be the sole purpose of creating ad blockers, to remove them. Not for the purpose of making Google remove them from their business model altogether lol. That's clearly not going to happen.
Very surprising to hear this, I would never think that would be a viable endeavor to begin with. But fair enough. Honorable of them!
From my personal perspective though, I'm spending zero time in any effort towards blocking ads. Installed uBlock years ago and I haven't done anything since. ๐ They've done all the effort for me.
Exactly what I mean. I'm very grateful.
Very reasonable reasons, by the way.
I use ublock origin. Haven't had any serious problems so far. I don't think Google will be successful for any long period of time with their anti-adblock vendetta because people live to ruin them.
