Yesterday, users began complaining that Google is now slowing down YouTube in browsers with ad blockers.
Today the company responded to the complaints and said that it is not slowing down the video service. This is due to the work of blockers outside the browser.
To support the diverse ecosystem of content creators around the world and ensure billions of people can access the content they love on YouTube, we’ve started encouraging users to use ad blockers or try YouTube Premium.
Users with ad blockers installed may experience a suboptimal browsing experience regardless of the user’s browser.
