YouTube Suddenly Activates Black Screen With Ad Blockers

No, we’re not mistaken: YouTube ads will now be even harder to miss. How do ads in videos work? Should you buy YouTube Premium? Sharing with you in this article.

Black Screen

How will ads look with an ad blocker?

YouTube has actively taken on “cheaters” who want to bypass ads through third-party services. Now, when using ad blockers, ad inserts will look like this: the usual black screen for 6-20 seconds before and during the video. We agree, it sounds kinda awful.

This is how YouTube’s team fights cyberattacks and strengthens the video hosting’s security policy.

What’s our advice? Purchase YouTube Premium, of course. With it, you will not only avoid ads, but also get a lot of cool user-friendly tools.
