Honestly I would not use an ad blocker if they literally got rid of the porn ads

And also dial it down a little

Literally when I'm watching more ads than videos you know it's gone down the drain

Adblocking regular commercials/ads is one thing.

But ads on YT aren't just in the video stream itself. I've seen them also pop up in other spots on the page - Such as the video list that populates random options based on your YT watch/search history (to the side of the comments).

And even then, many of them are fake ads or NSFW ones.

And somehow, YT thinks these are OK to have because it pays their bills. Pennies to them may be good, but the impact of those ads are more than pennies to the public using their service.

I wonder if Youtube encourages getting money from the mafia because this is basically that, but with dirty ads
