Yeah we should probably whitelist youtube to sponsor the vids there. That's reasonable.

HOWEVER the real assholes are whoever is serving bloat and ads that will do anything to get malware onto your machine and track your every breath. This is really why we're blocking.

That's the actual problem with these ads: bloat, bandwidth usage, javascript, profiling, de-anonymization, tracking, attacks on privacy, sound, unskippable videos, etc.

I will feel no remorse for adblocking until advertisers go back to static, single-request, non-tracking, non-targetting ads.
