I'm not so sure, from what I understand these creators are typically paid upfront to embed the sponsorship in the video and they are given some promocode or url to present to watchers and that's how these sponsors track engagement. I don't think they check the watch time or the skip rate.
- rocqua 4y agoTrue, skipping in-content ads wont hurt creators pocket directly. But it will indirectly. Less engagement with the ads will eventually hurt their rates. And perhaps even the existence of tools like these could hurt the income of creators in general. Especially the second is scary. Creators being able to run these ads makes them much more independent from youtube, which I consider quite important.
