Well, I see it more often now compared to before, but it's a common thing to happen. Gambling sites are just ramping up their business to help gain more customers, because that's always the purpose of it, to attract new ande more customers with those ads, and this is not just common on YouTube videos; it's also both on Facebook, although I have not really been so active on Twitter to know if it extend to there too. But it really sucks 😔 to get those ads pupping up and obstructing ones video.

The ads you see on any platform depend on what you surf on that particular platform, whether it's YouTube, Google, Facebook, or any other platform. They track your activities through cookies and then use those cookies to show you personalized ads based on your interests which in this case are related to what keywords you've searched or what kind of videos and pictures you've interacted with.

It might be frustrating but that's what it is, if we don't want to see those ads, we will obviously need to clear the cache and cookies of our apps and browsers and try not to interact with videos or posts of the nature that we don't want to see anymore.

You're right, once they got hold of your preference you most like whenever you're online, they direct their ads in those categories and this make it very crucial for us to always clear our cookies if we don't want to be involved in any means they use in tracking us online, then we should be mindful of the sites we visited and also take good care of what what offer we received from any online means of advertisements through the use of ads regardless of the platform it's coming from.

Nothing wrong to see such thing since even if you do that still you can see such ads like that since many influencers inserting their gambling ads on their video. Its still up to us on how we deal those ads since if we got curious about what we see then maybe this is the start on our participation on gambling. If we already in situation where we like to play its better to lower down our expectations and make sure that we can always control ourself and always know our limit so that we will not heading into bad situation like addiction.

What is clear for sure is that a streamer does advertising or broadcasts gambling streams which he does because he can get more profit.
The first is from YouTube itself, he can get a certain amount of payment if he already has a lot of followers plus from the referrals that are shared if many people use it, you can be sure that the bonus from the referrals is also quite large.
YouTube is still free for gambling advertising and live streaming and we can see for ourselves that more and more people are using YouTube as their media for gambling advertising.

that's true (fall into the entertainment category), but not all streamers can make money from their videos on youtube when youtube knows that the content he makes is a video when he plays gambling

As long as you don't often do searches about gambling, you don't need to worry about recommended ads from YouTube, besides, many countries don't prohibit gambling ads on online platforms or social media

You need to remember that YouTube still gives freedom to advertise and broadcast gambling streams and those streamers who broadcast gambling who already have large enough followers can also make quite a large amount of money from YouTube.
If not, it's impossible for streamers to be able to play with large numbers of bets because they also know that it takes a lot of capital to play to get big wins so they can broadcast their bets for quite a long time.

Yes, it is clear that some countries do not prohibit gambling advertising on some social media because of the tax that is given, so even though these countries prohibit gambling, they still allow advertising like that on YouTube or other social media.

If the content creator you watch has other methods so you can support them financially, like a patreon or a premium subscription to their channel, then you can do so and still use a third party software of Youtube client to avoid seeing intrusive advertisements while enjoying your videos.

If they do not have one of those options, then it is weird, because most of Youtubers nowadays either have some crowdfunding account on either Patreon of Kofi or accept the help of sponsors, so they can continue to monetize their content.

The content creator has an option to stream on other unpopular platform too because Youtube and Twitch are really strict. Yeah most streamers are have Patreon or a premium subscription, don't forget they also give their referral link for poor people who want to support him but don't want to send any money.

However it depends on the streamer agreement with the casino, the casino can force the streamer to not use crowdfunding account since they've paid the streamer.

You can also use a VPN, which will is not a method to fight against ads but rather you will not be psychologically profiled and targeted. You will probably only see random ads with a VPN. As long as you are careful with your data.

That can be considered as well. Most VPNs today have built-in ad-blocking software which is primarily designed to get rid of any advertisements for the benefit of their users. But since Youtube are surely and technically aware of that, not an assurance that some VPNs can likely bypass the advertisement shown while streaming on the Youtube platform.

I also don't think it's convenient anymore that I will reach the point where I will use a third-party tool just to block Youtube advertisements if, on the other hand, I really like the videos that I'm watching. It's also a form of support if users will not block the ads if they really a supporter of that Youtube channel.

For casual Youtube viewers that don't know some technical ways to get rid of Youtube advertisements, the platform is not for you if you are too sensitive about ad-free videos where in fact, you are streaming it there for free in the first place.

I'm asking out of curiosity, are you guys experiencing a surge of gambling ads on youtube videos lately? this past week I've experienced an increased encounter of gambling ads on videos I watch on youtube. it's not that it bothers me, I am just surprised because I don't remember getting this many gambling ads on youtube videos in the past, but this past week, I usually get a gambling ad from 2-3 out of 5 videos I watch(it's just an estimation because of how often I get the ads). I don't know if it is because I recently watched several videos of streamers gambling or it's just a coincidence, I've watched streamers gambling videos in the past but I have never gotten this many gambling ads.

Yeah, I would agree about the surge. But I see more gambling ads everywhere and anywhere. Not only just Youtube. I guess we are just going to have to find a way to live in this world filled with tracking advertisements and data collection by AI means. I do not think that there is anything we can do against it, as long as we live in a free market. You should try using anti-ad apps like uBlock Origin. Also you can use a search engine that does not collect data from you (Google does it). You can also use a VPN, which will is not a method to fight against ads but rather you will not be psychologically profiled and targeted. You will probably only see random ads with a VPN. As long as you are careful with your data.

You are right, though not gambling related, I remember that in several occasions, I've search for something on Aliexpress for example, an Item I wish to buy, only to return later to YouTube, facebook and start seeing ads on that particular product I searched for..

This is also the same thing that happens with gambing as well, some times, I try to find out some things happening in the gambling world, so I head to Google and type the keyword "latest gambling updates, news", and later during that day, I return to YouTube to start watching gambling related ads in-between videos, I must confess its really annoying most times, but that is simply the internet, nothing much can really be done.

Yep, there is nothing we can do about that but use those ad blockers or browsers that automatically disable those ads. That's how they make money and that's why our data is important to them..

Yeah, personally, I've been using an ad blocker which seems to work really fine on my laptop before the laptop broke down, but then such facility is not available on mobile devices, most especially those who rarely visit sites like YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and so on through a web Browser, but essentially depend on their native mobile applications to access those platforms, like myself, I only use a browser to access sites without application, if the site have an app on the app store, I always find it much more convenient to use the app.

There are some available browsers that can be used in a mobile to avoid these ads if you don't want them. Just as suggested by the others about these browsers like Brave, you're free to download it or just download another ad blocker that you do trust.
So, whether you use desktop or mobile, you'll be avoiding these ads because they're really annoying when they pop everywhere and use browsers that don't keep your cookies or niches because they give you the ads that's based on your browsing history.

Hey guy, gambling ads are like virus appearing to any YouTube videos watched in my device. They are sometimes they even installed themselves in the phone and once I noticed that they have been installed in the phone I would just uninstalled them in the phone. They are really disturbing me whenever I login into YouTube and other site to watch and download movies. The most common ads that were disturbing were 1xbit and 1xbet. These two ads were like demon to me. But is like this days they are not disturbing like that again.

there are a lot of adblockers that are free of charge and some do, but still, those are good investments tho. ads were a normal part of youtube, that is also how they can market their premium subscription so they can remove ads. In short, you can use tools such as other adblockers or you can also use other other browsing sites other done google chrome.

I think this ads are force down on peoples throat, they want to make money but not at the expense of personalizing users data but I don't blame them because we live in a society where we don't care about our privacy, I believe Google and YouTube have thousands of users data in tbe sense that if they wish to cause chaoss, it will take them a minute to get it started and the word would easily enter another world war.

There was a time I do used the premium YouTube where I don't see Ads because I love using my phone to watch tutorials then but as I began to learn privacy protection, I stopped and I now use VPN, incognito mode and ad block, I think with these, it will help minimize my exposure with their games.

In todays era on which no matter how you do mind yourself on trying out to avoid those gathering information out of these companies or whatsoever but there are really moments which we can inevitably comply or expose about identity or something that talks about in correlation to that on which having no choice but to dealt up with it. Yes, there are really having those kind of opportunities or features but of course you would really be needing up to pay more for such thing and this is where they do really make more revenue. There are people who are really that keen on not liking to see those ads and this is why they do add up that premium thing.

Speaking about those ads then it would be everywhere. We do simply skip it out and doesnt mind nor bothering yourself that much. If you do make yourself that get uncomfortable then you could always opt to get out
and dont engage with it but it these things turns out to be irritating then you could always have the option on closing it out and continue on what you are doing as simple as that.

You are experiencing that because you have been targeted by advertisers as you fit into the user segment being that you already streamed several gambling videos. Your data has been farmer by YouTube and fed to the advertisers so that they can keep bugging you with the ads until you click on them and play at their casino or until you find a way to make it stop.

I'm not. I actually don't recall ever seeing a gambling ad on youtube. Maybe it is a result of your location? Here in the United States, maybe online gambling isn't quite as accepted as in other places so maybe they don't allow gambling ads for those in this jurisdiction yet? The ads I get are typically for large companies or small content creators trying to grow their audience. I am curious if you are outside the US and where exactly you are that you are being fed these types of advertisements. It also could be the result of you actually using online gambling platforms from your current location. I tend to take gambling trips when I engage in this behavior so maybe I'm just not identified by youtube as a gambler.

Another way to stop those advertisements is to log out of Youtube and log in with new credentials. If not then you need to follow what I have said earlier.

I don't think logging out will work if the user keeps on watching gambling-related streams and videos. Still, either logged in or logged out, Youtube will still follow its own system to let that user be exposed to some gambling-platforms related advertisements and stuff.

You can check it for yourself, don't log any accounts on the Youtube platform, and see the video recommendations while browsing for quite some time. That will also be applied to what advertisement/s should be shown while the said user is currently streaming on the platform.

Although honestly, I will admit I've never seen a gambling-related advertisement yet even once here in our region.

Maybe not just depending on user activities but also on the number of available gambling ads in the region as obviously, gambling ads that were based from other countries won't be supposed to be shown to other countries.

Whenever i do make use of certain browsers whether Chrome, Firefox, ME,Brave or Opera. I do really make use of incognito or private window on which it wont really be saving up cookies or histories on what you had

searched out on which you wouldnt really be able to see those irrelevant ads that you arent really that liking to see. Its true that it is really that sometimes that irritating on the time that their appearance is already that
more than as usual which is something that a common case on where these ads is showing knowing that companies would really be that aggressive on the time that they would be able to see some potential
customer or a specific audience. If you dont like totally having those ads specially on some sites then you could always have that ad blocker but if we do speak about youtube and
other social media platforms then there's no way on avoiding those things.

We do have a choice and that's a lot of option to make if we want to get rid of these ads whether they're gambling related or not. This is how these companies are tracking us and throwing us the ad that's for us.

Incognito browsing is great for the most part since it keeps your cookies from being traced (cookies are basically what they call 'internet trackers' which are the tiny bits of data that tells the site a lot about the user), but it still doesn't shield you from the gambling ads altogether. The best way you could really rid yourself of these pesky advertisements is through the use of ad blockers which they themselves blocks all ads, saving you the trouble of ever worrying about getting cut off from that stuff you're watching on Youtube by some unrelated advertisement. Plus using an ad blocker also disallows these sites from getting your cookies, and since you don't need to go incognito your search history is saved, which is especially helpful for people who tend to go back and forth on some sites and pages.

Yeah, it may not protect you wholly but at least that's the least that one can do. Those that don't want to download ad blockers or don't like to change their browsers, they can rely to incognito to at least not track what they're searching for and it won't be saved.

As I have said earlier it's your behavior with Google that determines those advertisements. Another way to stop those advertisements is to log out of Youtube and log in with new credentials. If not then you need to follow what I have said earlier.

I guess what you meant is to log-out your Gmail account, and long in a different one, right? Because you need to understand that it's the Gmail is the same as a "Google account" and a "Youtube channel", which all works together as one. And instead of doing that, I have an easier way to stop such targeted ads from displaying on your device (i.e both mobile & desktop) and that has to do with clearing the cache of your mobile device which contains the history of all the information you may have search before about on the forum.

And that can be done by just going the the "Settings" option of your smartphone, select "Apps & management" and then select your YouTube app and clear the cache.
