Furthermore, the well-known video-sharing website has intensified its efforts to counteract ad-blockers, which it claims violate its policies. Recently, YouTube clarified that users with their ad-blockers enabled should choose between seeing commercials on the platform to support it or subscribing to YouTube Premium to view videos without ads. This business model highlights how important it is for billions of viewers to be able to access their favorite videos and, consequently, how important it is to support content creators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Growing Battle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>YouTube launched an ad-blocker effort earlier this year. Initially, YouTube displayed pop-up warnings alerting users to their violations of YouTube policies. They then introduced a timer to ensure users saw the message. In June, YouTube took a more aggressive stance, and they informed users that they would disable their ad-blockers after viewing only three videos. They initially described this action as a &#8220;small experiment&#8221; to persuade viewers to enable advertisements or explore the advantages of YouTube Premium. This method is now available to all users, but some have noted problems with specific web browser&#8217;s ability to play videos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Diverse User Responses<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There have been various responses to YouTube&#8217;s assault on ad-blockers, with many people voicing their displeasure. Concerns have been raised by specific users on websites like Reddit. They can now choose to watch advertisements or to go ad-free by subscribing to YouTube Premium. Users receive messages that actively push the subscription service, highlighting the necessity of advertisements to maintain YouTube&#8217;s free content for a worldwide viewership. Users may experience an ad-free experience with YouTube Premium, and content creators continue to get payment through the subscription model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-background\" style=\"background-color:#d8f0ff\"><strong>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/techdisease.com\/youtube-crashing-iphone\/\">YouTube App Keeps Crashing on iPhone<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">YouTube Premium&#8217;s Pricing and Recent Changes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The monthly cost of YouTube Premium has increased from $12 to $14. Extra options available to subscribers include background playback, offline viewing, and better 1080p streaming. The additional cost, meanwhile, might not be the best option for those who only desire an ad-free browsing experience. In the past, YouTube provided a less expensive option in select European regions called Premium Lite, which costs \u20ac7 ($7.42) a month to remove advertisements. Regretfully, this option was removed by the end of October and was never made available anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>YouTube&#8217;s daring decision to take on ad blockers has triggered conversations concerning the future of internet advertising and user experience. Firstly, YouTube must balance displaying advertising and giving users an ad-free experience to sustain its ad revenue and help content creators. Consequently, the effects of this worldwide crackdown will keep becoming apparent in the dynamic world of internet content consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Via: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/youtube-is-taking-its-fight-against-ad-blockers-global-122041223.html?_fsig=6ZFX945KLigRdVumB_spOQ--%7EA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Engadget<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>YouTube is now fighting ad blockers globally to preserve its ad revenue.
