YouTube has been spotted testing server-side ads, which could pose a problem to ad blockers.

    If they’re truly server-side injected, then they would also appear permanently in any downloaded copy because the server would be telling the client what pieces are available-including the ad pieces with no way to differentiate.

      At least if still downloads them you can edit them out if it’s something you want to save.

      At least I can trim those away if needed.
