   Should I stop using my ad blocker?

   • However, you don’t need to stop using your ad blocker entirely. Instead, you can whitelist YouTube, telling your ad blocker to disable itself only while on YouTube’s website, but remain on for all other sites. You’ll find this option in your ad blocker’s settings, or it may appear as a quick action.
