I never imagined, I'd see a Russian advertisement while watching YouTube! Yes it's true. In between the bleached skinned, Korean kids jumping with joy, over how delicious Korean noodles, sold in Indonesia are, or an Indonesian Mother screaming, how her kids just can't get enough gooey, sugary, Kecap Manis. Or the one, where the mother is so caring for her child, as she sprays Toxic, poisonous, mosquito repellant all around the room they are standing in, breathing this stuff in with glee!
Yes I am complaining, and whining about while I watch Youtube, every 3 minutes or less, the program is interrupted with advertising! I guess that's the cost of free entertainment. But now, not only are The Russians invading Bali, but the TV waves also! With a guy squatting down on a musical stage screaming in Russian language, what sounds and looks like he's angry that someone stole the toilet paper! Sorry, I don't speak Russian. If someone out there does, please interpret into English? Thanks👍🤪

If you are using a laptop for viewing youtube you can install Total Ad Block for free. Very effective.

I have brave as my browser on my iPad, , which has an ad block installed. My problem is I'm using the large screen TV with CooCaa as the internet access. I don't know if there is a way to install any ad block on it. Sorry, but I am not that savvy with the computer world, as to what is a server or browser, or how to stop ads watching YouTube on CooCaa.

Just subscribe to You tube it isn't expensive and then the ads are more or less gone.
I use ad block on laptop but on smart tv we never get ads,so I assume that is due to YT subscription.
It costs up to 130,000 IDR a month & can be paid very easily by GoPay. & if you forget to have enough balance in the Go Pay app at payment time its no big deal. It doesn't lock you into long contracts.
I guess it depends on how much time you spend using YT, personally I use it far more than any TV channels/Netflix so I prefer to pay something to YT way more than I like paying Netflix or cable TV subscriptions.

Any ideas what those Russians ads were about? I think that was some kind of music? There was a lot of noise!
 
On my Android phone, I use the YouTube app and download videos before watching. Then, when I view them from my downloads section, there are no ads at all (except for sponsor reads that are part of the video itself). It works like a champ as long as I am connecting from an Indonesian IP address. If I leave the country, I set my VPN to connect to an Indonesian server and it still works. However, if I load YouTube from a foreign (mostly western countries) IP address, all downloaded videos immediately become unavailable.
