YouTube Cracks Down on Ad Blockers, Forcing Users to Disable Them to Watch Videos

YouTube is cracking down on ad blockers, forcing users to disable them to watch videos.

The company is now requiring users to take action to disable ad blockers, unlike before when they could just close a pop-up.

YouTube says using ad blockers violates its terms of service.

This comes as YouTube struggles with declining ad revenue.

YouTube has been adding more ads like unskippable 30-second ads, despite user complaints.
