Two possible solutions:
1) TV companies change things so adverts can no longer be skipped.
2) TV companies don't bother with adverts anymore, and instead get their revenue by charging 5x the amount for their services to viewers

You either find that ads cannot be skipped or you have to pay to watch ad-free. It's now standard SVOD policy by the likes of Netflix, Disney+, etc, to have their cheapest tier called something like 'Basic with Ads' if you choose not to pay. And YouTube has a bit of a nerve calling its ad tier 'Premium Lite'.
