Firefox on Android allows you to install uBlock Origin. I use it for youtube too.

The fact that ad blockers are even a thing is super upsetting.

If you are using ad blockers then you are not helping recoup the actual costs to operate the public internet. Stop being a freeloader!

Your country might have a public internet but mine doesn't.

I would happily pay a government entity as opposed to my ISP if the service was just as good but until a public option becomes available I pay for my private internet with a monthly bill.

Your being needlessly pedantic. Your payment to your local ISP pays for their connection to the broader internet, but that pays NOTHING to any person hosting a website or operating a server on the other side. I assume you know that, but you’d rather justify not watching a 5 second video or clicking the ‘x’ on a pop up window.

If it was actually 5 secs I wouldn’t have an issue but they get greedy and lazy. The ads get longer and longer more often unskippable, more frequent, and they show the same damn ones a million times over. It’s their own damn fault I want to block them.

The difference between paying for a public internet and paying for a private company's content is not needlessly pedantic.

It's a 16 second video of a small dott. That's the most bullshit clickbait I've ever seen for space related content.

If you haven’t seen it by now. I would say you didn’t miss much. No offense to the person who took the video. It’s just nothing that visually exiting.
