Youtube doesn't run for free, but they can save more money by firing a few executives than go after the minority adblock users. It's not the creators that really matter (but they're the group of people who are visible and who we can relate to) but you would not be saying the same thing if they were totally honest and say they're raising money so the executives can keep on "executing" and that investors can keep their short term profits.
