DuckDuckGo browser now blocks YouTube video ads

DuckDuckGo announced that its browser can now block most video ads on YouTube, including those shown before the video starts playing and during playback.

The feature is enabled by default in the latest versions of DuckDuckGo for iOS, Mac, and Windows, while Android users can enable it manually by going to Settings Ad Blocking.

YouTube is the world’s largest video platform, serving billions of users worldwide. Apart from YouTube Premium subscribers, free users are shown ads that help fund operational costs and creator payouts.
