Why has nobody ever made a browser add-on that selectively bypasses the code that allows them to show ads?

Of course people have found various techniques for bypassing ads but an arms race against YT is not going to be successful. DNS blacklists may have been effective but YT is currently upping the stakes, so I don't know what the current status is (and anyway this is not on-topic for this tracker).

When you watch a video on the YT website you are watching through the megabytes of JS code that YT includes in each video page to subvert straightforward HTML5 video. Some of that implements the exciting social media features offered by YT, some selects pointless ads that you're going to ignore.
