YouTube Clarifies Video Jumping Issue, Denies Link to Ad Blocker Crackdown

TapTechNews May 29th news, YouTube users have reported in the past few weeks that videos would automatically jump to the end credits, mainly affecting those who have enabled ad blockers. Google's YouTube released a statement through the 9to5Google media, clarifying that this adjustment is only to improve the overall performance and reliability of the platform and has nothing to do with measures to combat ad blockers.

TapTechNews translated the official statement of Google's YouTube as follows:

Ad blockers violate YouTube's terms of service. For some time, we have been calling on users to support their favorite creators by allowing ads to play on YouTube or trying YouTube Premium for an ad-free experience.

This adjustment is only to improve the performance and reliability of YouTube, but the possible result is an unsatisfactory viewing experience for users who use ad blockers.

Some users think this is the code that Google adjusts the stability of YouTube, and it is incompatible with ad blockers, resulting in the automatic jump of videos to the end credits. However, YouTube has not clearly confirmed this.

Interestingly, according to the 9to5Google report, at least one user said that this problem would be encountered even without an ad blocker.
