YouTube just quietly blocked Adblock Plus — the internet hasn't noticed yet, but I've found a workaround

This post did not contain any content.
I got a question in my head just now.
DNS sinkhole doesnt help with youtube ads but UBO does. DNS doesn't help with twitch ads and neither UBO does. Why is that youtube doesn't do the same what twitch does?
On a side note, my ads on twitch are basically "ad is in progress" screen and not an actual ad. And lately YT has couple of seconds with no video in the beginning as if it loads (1Gbit connection) but eventually loads up and plays with no interruptions after.

Yes even meta noticed that the qualityof videos on peertube is increased, they're illegally scraping all the content for training their closed source for-profit ai video generator
Illegally? Is training that actually illegal under any current laws?

To my knowledge, sponsors do not give money to Google, just to the creator. So SponsorBlock isn't needed.
But I have to admit that some sponsored segments can be obnoxious as hell, so I can understand why one would use it.When I'm using sponsorblock, I sometimes just stop watching if I see a long sponsor section, regardless. If the poster has like 20% of their video used to talk about shilling something, then they're probably not someone I trust.

No uBlock on my phone.
On Firefox on Android you can use extensions. I've been using uBO for years on my phone.
