YouTube is testing access restrictions to use an ad blocker. The user is supposed to be blocked after watching three videos with the blocker enabled. Users will be notified of the subsequent blocking.
Video hosting YouTube has started testing the restriction of access to viewing videos for the use of services that block ads. The fact that YouTube sends appropriate notifications to users was reported by a Reddit user.
The screenshot posted by the user says that access to the resource will be limited after watching three videos with the blocker enabled. YouTube explains that ads allow video hosting to remain free.
In May, YouTube announced plans to replace two non-skippable 15-second commercials with one 30-second commercial on TVs and smart devices.
