What firewall rules do you implement that effectively blocks YouTube ads?

  • Different person here, but with yt-dlp I never see ads. Well, not the ones YT adds. The only thing I ever saw is if somebody diverts into speaking an ad in their own voice as part of their stream. That's harder to prevent. For YT ad inserts tho, can't remember ever seeing one.

    it's technically not just youtube ads -- it's all ads and done through pfsense.

    i think ublock origin and youtube sponsor block is more effective for youtube specifically
