Someone who pays for a YouTube ad knows some people will block it. And advertisers do not value consent.

YouTube advertisers aren't affected by this - it's the content producers who aren't getting paid, and potentially even YouTube no longer making enough to pay for the resources you use. YouTube has an enormous library now but if people who make content start thinking of it as smaller and smaller payments they're going to making new content.
