The company's team clarified that their terms prohibit third-party apps from disabling ads, as it denies creators their due reward for viewership. Although the announcement did not specify any app by name, it's plausible to presume that third-party YouTube apps such as NewPipe, YouTube ReVanced, Piped, and others might be implicated.

It's more like saying, "stay away from that particular publisher, because it's abusive to the authors and steals from the readers".

I do agree that I could look to so many thongs.
