Wait for Chrome to get volume control access permissions so YouTube ads can pause if you muted them.


YouTube is a strange outlier in that they still tolerate adblockers despite them being very easy to block (at least in the 99% case), so I don't think they'll be the first to implement this.


One suspects that those who run youtube also use it...


Nah, I’d expect the entire YouTube team to have premium accounts.


It seems like Twitch really managed to avoid adblockers being effective. And their ads are mostly not insane (game or cinema related mostly).
