So today I've seen this article saying YouTube failed and another saying they've succeeded because of record uninstalls of adblockers.

Considering that, after Netflix enabled anti account sharing, they got an increase in subscriptions, I've lost faith in humanity, and believe YouTube will succeed in the same way

But that's because most people watch Netflix through smart TVs and those TVs are closed systems that don't have apps, or very limited ones. Trying to get people who barely understand how to operate their remote to stream from their computer or other device, isn't going to happen.
