The ad company is Google, no? So they already have that logic ready to go.

Does anybody actually click the ads in YT videos? The only clickable thing I ever see is “Skip Ad”.

Clicks are a metric that Google/YouTube tracks to determine whether a business has to pay for that ad, so it’s necessary for ads to be clickable.
