I’m not sure Google can be blamed for people using ad blockers - but from that perspective actively preventing ad blockers would be the “right” thing to do. Unless you want them to ban creators securing in video sponsor deals, I’m not sure what you want Google to do here or how that’s a scam. YouTube premium removes Google’s ads, I don’t think it claims to do anything else. Do Google make claims about creators getting paid everything they generate? Was anyone under that impression? The platform does need to be paid for and the revenue generated through some content creators is subsidising others.
YouTube isn’t perfect by any stretch, I don’t enjoy ads any more than anyone else, but calling it a scam just seems very far removed from reality.
