This is really heavy handed and I don't think this will work as they hope.
I tend to spend too much time watching YT anyway. This will help saving some time to do useful work or gaming instead.

Apart from just Ads, I use the "Block Element" feature of uBlock to cut down on a lot of other visual noise within sites. For youtube I block the giant rows of "related" video suggestions (which I guess you could consider as ads), and youtube shorts from showing up in my subscription feed.
