I occasionally hear people complaining about ads on youtube, but I have never seen a youtube ad aside from when random people try to show me a video on their computer. Do people just not use adblock+ any more?

You can't avoid the ads if they are presented as videos.

It's actually a cultural phenomenon of people making a living by buying toys and making you tube videos about them. You tube then pipes children's eyeballs to these videos.

Sure, but not on my phone and on my Samsung 65" smart tv.
Ah. Yea, I use firefox for android for mostly that reason.
