While a Pi-hole would work in theory, Ads are just wrapped youtube videos as they come from the same servers. It would be a need of pinpointing each video individually.

My take is that we need uBlock to have a functionality to send data to people's Pi-Hole on a page by page basis.

"UBlock PiHole" is a great name for a team-up too.
