Or you can try switching your VPN to a European location while using Ublock. I think YouTube’s anti-adblocking violates EU privacy laws

I personally don’t use Youtube (I prefer using Libredirect with Piped/Invidious) but I tried Youtube on Firefox with UBlock and I didn’t have any problem. This might sound dumb but what filters do you use on UBlock? I have read that turning on some filters would help with this but I’m not sure.

I switched over to this script on my desktop, and I use NewPipe on mobile. The script requires you to disable your ad blocker for YT, and then uses a different method to bypass ads that hopefully google will be less likely to patch.

i’m using safari on macOS, and i’ve had pretty good luck with Ad Guard Pro. when i get the adblock warning, i switch my user agent. when that doesn’t work, deleting my cookies usually does the trick.

I have to log out, clear cookies, update/clear block lists, then log back in.
