Has YouTube Blocked Your Adblocker Yet?? angielski

UPDATE 2It seems that starting today, uBlock Origin is working to combat this Youtube Block. Mine started working again! Lets all thank the devs of UBO for fighting this fight!

UPDATESo as new info comes out, I’ll be posting it here. It seems as if this Rollout Has Several Parts.

Part 1

You get a popup message over top of your video, blocking the screen: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/pictrs/image/bd0e0c67-f37d-4b82-a5b8-1703542f0af1.jpeg

  • This is the first sign. If you see this popup AND are logged into a YouTube account, your account has been selected.
  • At this stage you can likely close or block these messages with an adblocker.

Part 2

This message will change, indicating that you have 3 remaining videos to watch without ads.

Will insert photo once one has been found

  • At this stage your adblocker will imminently stop working in 3 videos time.
  • Personally using Firefox + uBlock Origin and tweaking filters and updates does not even fix it.

Part 3

None of the video loads now, everything looks blank.

  • At this stage you must tred new ground to avoid ads. I have posted methods in the comments. If you want to bypass this end page, read down there.

End of Update

YouTube has started rolling out anti-adblock to users inside the United States, which means that they are preparing to roll this out to the entire country. Personally, I have been blocked already. I want to gauge how common this occurrence is.

GreenMario,

Firefox + UBO and ReVanced still working rn.

zipzoopaboop,

Firefox and ublock as usual, still good

Grownbravy,

I saw two borked up ads that played audio and no video, refreshed my browser and haven’t seen them since. I also updated my block list and it’s been fine.

If you are on Linux you can just use freetube. Maybe it’s also available on windows but that’s something I don’t know

orvorn,

FreeTube is available on Windows as well.

Thanks for the recommendation. Just downloaded (just in case) and I've gotta say, I might like this enough to switch out even if they don't mess with my browser player.

bzxt,

I have been having this problem 2 days ago, but I have started using NoScript in combination with UBlock Origin yesterday and i didn’t see any ads after that.

HumanPerson,

I only watch Rossmann’s channel anymore so I will probably just quit if they block mine. I use uBlock Origin + Librewolf + VPN + pihole + a random user agent extension. When I set my VPN to USA it still doesn’t say anything.

I have almost the exact same setup! But please tell me more about this random user agent extension

HumanPerson,

This is it: addons.mozilla.org/en-US/…/random_user_agent/

It breaks some sites but is very configurable and you will probably be able to get it to work. I believe it is GPL but it may be Mozilla license.

Drewski,

Louis Rossman is also on Odysee: https://odysee.com/@rossmanngroup:a

HumanPerson,

Yay I can quit google completely!!!

theshatterstone54,

YES! One of the creators I can keep on watching when I quit (by the end of the week probably, or when they kill off newpipe)

lemming007,

I’ll quit YouTube before I watch ads.

Youtube has not blocked me with my uBlock but your poll did for being a vpn user.

I know it’s an anti-vote-fraud measure but it’s still kind of funny.

gonzoknowsdotcom1,

All my subscriptions are on peertube and odysee but no

Not yet, just waiting for it.

pewgar_seemsimandroid,

probably not ublock and for sure not revanced

Hhffggshn,

I’m still good with revanced

HughJanus,

Voting over VPN not allowed. Might try Cryptpad or I think Framasoft has a voting platform.

Not yet, and I'm already prepared to use piped if I can't use youtube itself, and hopefully people will start reuploading content to peertube (wink) if yt just becomes inaccessible.

kworpy,

For me it’s quite strange. This first happened around 2 weeks ago, I was getting ads, however only the audio works as when the ad plays the screen is black.

I’m on Firefox with uBlock. Also I never got this popup, I just started getting ads with a black screen.

cmysmiaczxotoy,

Install 1.51.1rc2 and restart Firefox. That will fix it. github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases

Skip in 5 seconds? No. I’ll trek 7 deserts, gleefully abandoning everything and everyone I ever knew before you will subject me to this.
