YouTube threatens to cut off ad-blocker users after just three ad-less vids

Google is trying out a new show of force to keep users from watching YouTube videos without ads. Some users are reporting that the company will allow access to just three videos before prompting to either disable ad blockers or otherwise pay Google for the privilege of ad-less viewing.

i have somehow avoided every really using youtube. kinda glad as it seems to be circling some kind of profit-driven drain.

seems like VCs are contracting industry wide.. but i dont think a lot of companies have a real exit strategy (to profitability) other than "put the screws to our client base"
