They can definitely inject the ad into the video stream on the server side and still correctly classify it as ad. Some other platforms already do that. From my own experience, many podcasts monetize like that. The ads get injected by their distributors. Leads to German ads before English speaking podcasts, if you stream them from Germany. However, their ads are skippable. Wouldn’t be surprised if YouTube somehow made that impossible, too.
