YouTube denies claims of 90-second unskippable ads amid reports

YouTube has said that the recent appearance of 90-second unskippable ads on its platform was due to a technical glitch, after several users complained about the same. It stated, "YouTube does not have a 90-second non-skippable ad format...This isn't something we are testing right now.” YouTube called it a bug with inaccurate timers being shown for shorter ads.
