There is a trick to block ads without using ad blockers.

When you see any ad, just close your eyes and ears until the ad ends smile

Google tried everything possible to show ads as if they were videos and failed.

Hence they have now decided instead to detect ad blockers and force the users to see the ads.

Google is looking to get back the revenue they have been losing due to adblockers.

Hightime for brave to introduce the alternative for youtube😘
