Count me in. I am a savvy shopper, not dragged into debt by brands and advertising and if I wanted to see adds, I would click on a channel with adds (if there was some). So far there are only a few videos summarising funny ads, or ridiculous ads, from the past. I enjoy watching those. Once.

dammer001 I would suspect that even if WE don't watch ads, we still can share youtube content on other media and whoever views that content might be exposed to the ads, so not entirely true that we are a dead end and getting rid of us would be good for youtube. But taking how intrusinve those ads are without any filter whatsoever, I can assume that sooner or later pretty much most of the audience will reach for some adblock or stop watching youtube completely. And I am sure youtube doesn't want that.

@HeathenHacks Well, I am not that audience. I have an adblock, all across other websites, not just youtube. I am not even having Netflix or haven't used a single minute of free Amazon premium. They begged me by emails, ignored. They sent me a card by post. To the recycling bin it went. Amazon is trying to hide premium-free posting on their website, with a big coloured button to subscribe right in front of my face. FO! I am fine with Freeview and change channels when the ads hit (except of BBC), so I cover several shows at once LOL. If those ads on other websites were at least static, I could ignore them. But they keep moving, flashing, videos play where I came to read an article. Paying them so they stop annoying me? No, thanks.
