YouTube has found a new way to bypass ad blockers by integrating ads directly into video content via "server-side ad insertion," complicating the detection and blocking of ads. How will ad blockers respond?

          So then after one person has had 2 ads that last a total of 40 seconds and another has had 2 that lasted 70 the timing is completly off for how far into the videos the ads are
