YouTube cracking down on third-party apps that block ads
(9to5google.com)https://9to5google.com/2024/04/15/youtube-app-block-ads/Following the ad blocker crackdown, YouTube is explicitly going after third-party — often mobile — apps that let viewers skip advertising.
YouTube announced today that it is “strengthening our enforcement on third-party apps that violate YouTube’s Terms of Service, specifically ad-blocking apps.”
Users will see a “The following content is not available on this app” error message or experience “buffering issues” when they try to play content though those alternative clients.
