YouTube is finally cracking down on third-party apps that enable ad-blocking - eviltoast

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.

    Vanced got taken down due to trademark violations.

    They need something more substantial for revanced. Especially since it’s only a set of binary patches and there is no redistribution of YT source code.
