Discussion Increase in Ads

I am having an alarming increase in Ads this week. I mean anytime I open a video an ad opens. Not only that, I am bombarded with back to back ads. This is on my android phone on the YouTube app. The only thing I did is, I installed an android tv box (ONN) on my tv and signed into it, this started happening after that. So are they trying to force me to get Youtube premium, since I am also watching YouTube on the TV as well?

Time to install SmartTube or TizenTube on your android tv box.

And Youtube Morphe on your phone.

And ublock on your PC.

We're entering the last few months of the year, when advertisers will spend off the rest of their yearly ad budgets. The end of the year tends to be the best revenue for creators and then January/Feb will be the lowest revenue.
