Part 1:
Now a days, one seems to be having a torrid time watching videos on Youtube; ever since Youtube started playing in-video ads, Youtube experience has almost become nightmarish for the impatient users.
Solution :
AdBlock Extension
Search for this popular browser extension and get it installed in your browser to get rid of the in-video youtube ads.
Part 2:
In this part I will try to demonstrate how AdBlock may have been built and the hacks we can employ in blocking in-video ads ourselves, without relying on extensions like AdBlock.
2 reasons why we may not want to rely on AdBlock alone :
1. May not work on all sites
2. Knowing what is under the hood is fun.
If any of the above 2 points brought a smile on your face, check the Part 2 of this series here
Cheers!
