Well I use to have them on whitelist for all these reason, but a) lately the amount of ads has gotten crazy and b) a large amount of videos are fraudulently copyright striken and revenue stolen from creators https://www.streemtunes.com/post/how-did-pewdiepie-get-a-copyright-strike-for-using-his-own-music https://www.streemtunes.com/post/how-did-pewdiepie-get-a-cop... I think it's egregious how YouTube treats content creators in general and how expect us to foot the content distribution bills in particular, especially since many of the video themselves are ads (they include product placement, or are straight up teasers for products) I think there's a case to be made at least for non indies to pay proportionally to the minute viewed of their content, to decrease the pressure on monetizing indies.
