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.

janguv,

Here’s hoping YouTube Revanced on Android and Adguard on desktop continues to work, eh…

Firefox has zero issues with adblock on Desktop. On mobile I prefer Newpipe, but hey. Anything goes.

hunt4peas,

REX is working fine with the SponsorBlock enabled.

janguv,

Forgive my ignorance – what’s REX?

hunt4peas,

Revanced Extended.

Lt_Cdr_Data,

Tbh, at this point there’s no reason in them disabling ad blockers. If you haven’t gotten used to this insane amount of ads by experiencing the slow, uphill creep, having to go from seeing no ads to suddenly this, is impossible. I couldn’t watch youtube videos in the current state of ads, so I’d just have one less vice.

I had already stopped once, when youtube vanced went offline (until i found revanced) and I will do it again

Based_and_Cool,

Revanced stopped working for me last week. I may reinstall incase I was running an old patch.

Patching a newer version of the Youtube app resolved the issues with playback I was having.

janguv,

Yeah likely cause is something outdated. All working fine on my end

I wonder if the people having this issue are using chrome. On FF it has never been an issue for me.

hunt4peas,

Not there in Edge as well.

NeckarIT,

I had this issue using Firefox. But updating the block lists has fixed it for now.

couragethebravedog,

Interesting.

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.

useful_idiot,

Invidious has been working flawlessly :)

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.

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.

sculd,

Enshittification is REALLY going strong, huh…

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

lemming007,

I’ll quit YouTube before I watch ads.
