California: Google-owned video streaming platform YouTube has released its annual earnings report. The company said in its annual report that the company earned $36.2 billion (31,77,97,08,50,000 Indian rupees) in advertising revenue last year. This is revenue from advertising sales alone. This does not include revenue from YouTube Premium subscriptions and YouTube TV. This means that YouTube's total revenue in 2024 is much more than $36.2 billion.

YouTube earned $10.47 billion from advertising alone in the last quarter of 2024. This is the company's highest revenue in a quarter. The US presidential election is the main reason for this revenue, according to reports. The US presidential election was held in which both parties doubled their spending compared to 2020. On Election Day, November 5, more than 45 million people in the United States watched election-related content on YouTube, Google's Chief Business Officer Philip Schindler said.

Meanwhile, while YouTube has achieved record revenue, the ad viewing experience on the platform is getting worse. In the past few days, there have been reports that YouTube has been showing ads for several hours for some users. According to various reports, many are not even able to skip them. There are also complaints that some users are being forced to buy YouTube Premium because of this. YouTube has launched a campaign against ad blockers. Reports say that the company is taking strict action against users who have ad blockers on their systems. The company is reportedly taking measures, including disabling video playback until the ad blocker is removed.
