Why do people not run uBlock Origin? What's the case against?

I read the TOS as giving google the right to terminate my Google account.

And to be fair, video is expensive. Ads give both Google and the creators a return on their money.

Edit: just to clarify; I run ublock disabled on Youtube.com

Because YouTube is a poor little company that definitely doesn’t deserve to die.
I recall seeing some mental gymnastics about ads and effective altruism. I'm not sure the authors understood either ads or effective altruism.
