Just had YouTube spit an ad to me on mobile for what they called a new Dragon Ball Z game, every single shot was ai and driven by an ai voice. There really is no one approving content anymore.

    Uninstall YouTube. ;) No, I’m serious. I’m on an iPhone 16 Pro Max (well, I’m on my Mac, my iPhone is next to me). I just browse YouTube in Safari on the iPhone. (On the Mac, it’s Firefox with uBlock Origin.)

    I’m currently using uBlock Lite for ad blocking in Safari, and it works well with YouTube. I don’t get ads. I do get them on IMDb, which is annoying. I also have two paid options, Adguard Pro and Wipr 2, but those aren’t presently active (since ad blockers can disrupt one another).
