100% agree I get premium through my phone provider and I still watch videos were they have a paid sponsor and since I support the content creators I don't mind the sponsor ad the video.

    It's not often, but yeah, sometimes I'll get a "Jump Ahead >>>" button overlay that skips the sponsor ad-read and/or a clear auto-generated "segment" that is the sponsor ad-read.

    Still, I never expected YT Red to remove uploaded content, only to stop inserted advertisements.
