    This isn’t “backfiring” though. People who were already blocking ads are the only ones doing this. If there’s even a small portion of people who gave up and just started watching ads/got premium, that means YouTube won. The only way this could really be considered to have backfired is if people were stopping using YouTube entirely, which isn’t really happening.
