> Creator sponsors are not YT ads

They are. YT shows content, and has several mechanisms of including paid ads in that content. From content consumption perspective there is no difference which specific mechanism is used.

> by your logic i wouldn’t be allowed to watch a movie trailer

No, that's your own twisted logic. By my logic you'd be free to consume directly whatever you want, just be able to "pay and get no ads"






And what if I want to watch mightycarmods entire videos including their personal sponsorship segments? Are you just going to take that away from me?

Stop fallaciously pretending they’re the same thing.
