YouTube AdBlock Blocker

YouTube forces me since a few days to stop my ad blocker. Otherwise i cant play any more videos. At least when im logged in.

Anyone already found a work around for that issue?

Firefox + uBlock Origin + uMatrix.

uMatrix allows more granular domain blocking to remove uselles shit from google

uBlock Origin on Chrome and no ads so far. On my phone I use ReVanced (NewPipe is good too).

Re: YouTube AdBlock Blocker

Hey guys, thanks for ur response!

Firefox with uBlock Origin still works for me

I tried it, but its the same for me as in chrome (what is my standard browser). It detects the blocker and wont let me watch videos. I tried deleting the cookies, data and stuff but no

I also tried uBlock on chrome instead of my standard adblock but its the same.

Am i blacklisted now on google or what?

Or use invidious..

This is too complicated for me xD. Im not very experinced with such things. But thanks anyways!

edit: Oh, i get it. It redirects u to an alternative version of the originial site without any ads, bling bling and stuff. Interesting! But i cant loggin there and use it with my account

Seems like they are testing/rolling it out slowly so too many people wouldn't get pissed at the same time.
Another way is to use a vpn in argentina for example and buy premium for a low price

Lol, suddenly, without making any changes, uBlock works with both browsers. Nice!

Lets see how things going.

Internet says, premium in argentina is around 1,50€/month. Not much, but im not willing to give that faceless, data sucking, billion dollar company any money.

Re: YouTube AdBlock Blocker

It was obvious where this is going when google bought youtube and even more so when they disabled the use of dislike button.
Such ads that you block with ublock will be history. More and more ads will be the content itself. Much of the good stuff that doesn't sponsor anything will be buried down in the results. Same with google search.

Re: YouTube AdBlock Blocker

There are only 6 countries in the world where this is the case.

In this particular case, you're probably lucky.
