You can at least pay (quite a lot less than a cable subscription) to remove them. It beats paying $80 a month for the great privilege of spending 30% of the time watching ads.
For now, of course.
My Adblocker is free
Your AdBlocker works on YT TV?
Again, for now.
I think the day an adblocker starts charging people is the day that companies will try to sue them into non-existence with lawsuits they know will fail.
Either that or nobody will pay for it because they're used to getting adblockers for free. They'll just move to another one or maybe one that's FOSS.

All the major ones are already open source. uBlock Origin, uBlock, AdBlock, AdBlock Plus and AdGuard are all licensed under GPLv3. If anyone fancied starting another competing one for some reason they'd have plenty of codebases to choose from.
That doesn't make sense. uBO would just be forked.
Soon you’ll pay AND watch ads. Maybe there will be a free tier with 5 minute ad breaks, and paid tier with 1 minute ad breaks.

Well I should bloody well hope so, considering you also get far less than cable.
YouTube is still mostly amateur or indie content, most of it short-form, and most of it frankly just not very good. There's still stuff on there worth watching, and I know some people really do consume a lot of content on there in the manner of watching TV back in the day, but objectively it really isn't the same thing as professional studio content. I can watch some random guy in Ohio do a 15 minute review of some niche thing I'm interested in as much as anyone can, but there's no way I'd consider that worth the same value as a long form TV series or feature film.
Less? I'd argue YouTube gets you way more than cable
There's a buttload of high quality content
Tbh paying a package deal isn't actually the worst thing. I get netflix, sky sports, BT sports, movies, all channels, 1gb broadband and 1 unlimited data SIM. £100 pm.
Yes it's expensive but it's £55 for 1gb broadband anyway. They have a stranglehold over football/soccer that it's hard to get away from. Yes you can pirate the stream but it's not the same.
This has fuck all to do with YT but generally getting packages individually isn't cheaper sometimes.
I got all the sports for €3 from alibaba
How?
Go to alibaba and look up iptv subscription. Usually has loads of flags in the pictures. Ask for a free test for 24 hrs, if the stream works ok then buy it. I had all the sports, price went up and I was still finding games I didn't have so fuck it now I have them all.
You'll need an IPTV launcher on your device, I use tivimax on my appletv.
