For Youtube often the content is an ad too. Will Google need to stop serving huge swaths of content to the UK at certain times? Hope so!

I got news for you.

Kids entertainment has almost always been ads.

Disney movies are marketing for toys. Same with TV shows and cartoons.

We have no idea how/where it'd end up (with). If I understand anything about regulations (which is doubtful of course), the advertisers, themselves, would be on the hook.
