    I’ve heard others say that many people are uninstalling ad blockers.

    I guess its just how you interpret the data

      What’s often left out is people are uninstalling terrible ad blockers and installing better ones. The terrible ones allow certain ads (from advertisers who pay to get through) or even inject their own ads.

      Some disinformative articles are trying to use that to claim that because people are uninstalling [insert bad scammy adblocker name] that people are uninstalling adblockers altogether.

      I’d disable mine on YouTube for the sake of ripping all the videos I want overnight, then consuming them at my leisure later on.

      Basically what I’m doing already, just with an extra step.
