Afaik, they are unblockable. They are served from the same domain as the video, so if you block them you can't see the video either.
Instead of blocking it at the domain level, you can install adblockers on almost any platform. I recommend uBlock for Firefox and ReVanced for Android. ReVanced is also supposed to work on Android TVs, iirc.
Running NewPipe for android to get ad free youtube, have been reasonably satisfied. Is revanced comparable, or good enought to bother switching?
Assuming you don't mind microG, with revanced you can sign in and have access to more of the bells and whistles. Otherwise, newpipe is great, and it's more than YouTube. It handles bandcamo and other services too
