| I don't know, it's not obvious to me that YouTube should prioritize the creator's desire to track users over the user's desire not to be tracked. |

| Google already doesn't pay out creators for views with blocked ads, no advertiser is going to pay for ads that were never shown. The view counter doesn't matter to that. Perhaps Youtube could enforce tougher blocking of ad blockers to support creators better. |

| Viewers are hurting the creators then. If you care so much about the creators, turn off your ad blocker. |

| ▲ | echoangle 4 days ago | parent [-] | | Well I can’t force every viewer to turn off the ad blocker, but google can change the method they use for counting. |
