YouTube has been spotted testing server-side ads, which could pose a problem to ad blockers.

Ad blockers are useful for more than just YouTube. So they are not going anywhere. However it will be a bummer if we can no longer block YouTube ads.

On android I have to endure the ads but on desktop I never see them.
