Google is fighting a war that it can’t win, people in general had enough of all these ads.

Whenever I can, I use a DNS or an adblocker or an open source app that it doesn’t track his users.

The vast majority of users did not use or even really know much about adblockers in general until recently, when Google/YT shot themselves in the foot by Barbara Straisand-ing adblockers into the general public's consciousness.
