After getting ads to vote 20 times for “New day will rise” at the Eurovision now I’m getting ads to show how evil is Iran and why they must be stopped now.

You have to be crazy to watch YouTube without an ad-blocker in this day and age! On mobile (Android at least), Firefox with ublock works well for YouTube.

I clicked the ad to waste their ad budget and surprisingly they didn’t block comments (but zero comments with 400k views, probably they got deleted)

  I don’t think they care about the budget. They probably care more about impressions and clicks. So, just use an adblocker, to lower their ad impressions.
