How to block ads on YouTube (they are banning accounts that block ads now)


Recommended Posts


It's just a heads up. YouTube are now banning you if you use an adblocker on YouTube. Only uBlock works with the latest update.

Feel free not to use it, it just means you'll get ads on YouTube that cannot be skipped and YouTube are really cramming the ads in now.

I'm not sure what type of banning it is, if it's just your YouTube account that gets deleted, your entire Google account or if your IP address gets banned. 

Welcome to the future!

Just get the Duck Duck Go search engine app.

It has the "duck player" which automatically removes you tube ads.   Its been a revelation for me.

You can set it to always open youtube videos in duck player, or to choose each time.

I can only remember one time when it didnt work and the video wouldnt play.

(I only look at youtube on my pc, but presume it would work with the android version etc too).

Yeah, that's handy. It only seems to work on Windows, though, not Chrome, etc.

It's just a massive cunt that YouTube is so obsessed with ad revenue.

How many people would use THIS SITE if adverts interrupted you every 5 minutes?

YouTube has been ran by morons for over 10 years. They seem hellbent on ruining a good thing.
