YouTube is running an experiment asking some users to disable their ad blockers or pay for a premium subscription, or they will not be allowed to watch videos.
I hate ads with a passion due to my experiences in the marketing industry and will go out of my way to never watch any. I also don’t want to pay for random internet content, especially not to companies on the stock market. (Though I do use Patreon a bit for some content creators)
Can‘t explain it much more than that. If youtube locks me out due to that, so be it. I don‘t get worked up either, I simply state my opinion on it where I please and if I‘m not wanted I leave. That‘s about it.

Why don’t you pay for YouTube premium? This removes all platform ads.
I edited to clarify my dislike for big companies too, but if I think about it, it also just doesn‘t make sense. I watch maybe an hour of youtube a week at most, usually less. I‘d rather spend that amount somewhat more direct with Patreon on the few people I want to support.
