Doesn’t v3 work similar to add blockers for Safari on iOS? So hasn’t that incentive already existed?

  Do most Safari users even realize ad blocking is an option?

    Do most chrome users? It looks like 25-40% of internet users block ads. Depends on country. I can’t find per-browser stats, which would be somewhat fascinating.

  And Safari on macOS (same system). Worth noting those can’t block the most recent YouTube ads without introducing a bespoke solution.

    At some point Google is going to insert the ads in the video stream and they’ll be unstoppable by anyone who doesn’t buy premium.
