Not true. I just started "Katy Perry - Part of Me" (if anything will block you it'll be a high profile video like that) via Mobile Safari. Works fine, on both vevo.com and through youtube.com. You never leave MobileSafari, playback occurs entirely within the browser.
Apparently devs haven't been using their devices for much video playback. Most of the information on this page is a good six months out of date. VEVO and YouTube work just fine through the browser, and they have already devised a scheme to feed unskippable ads to iOS devices.
The industry is way ahead of the concerns on this page.
