Ad-blocking is a perpetual arms race between advertisers and blockers, and every now and then advertisers figure out a new way to deliver ads that gets around the current state of blockers. A few ads leak through for a day or two, then the blockers catch up and they go away again. I especially like the "if you don't watch ads, we can't support the creators you enjoy" excuse. If I just sent a dollar directly to each creator from which I watched more than ten videos, they'd be making more money off of me than Youtube would ever pay them for my views.

And then even then places like Patron and GoFundMe and kofifi take a not minor amount of your earnings. Damn parasites. --- The Arcana is the means by which all is revealed.
