At least uBlock Origin is always up-to-date now

Oh I just "remove element permanently" on U-Block origin.

Make sure to remove the invisible element too that covers the whole screen. They tried that to prevent ya from just opening the video anyway.

To deactivate the scrollblock, if you experience it,just go full screen once and go back out. Which can be easily automated via a macro or literally just pressing the F key twice.

YouTube's attempts at blocking Adblockers are pathetic

uBlock Origin has got to be the best extension out there right now. Saving me so much time

So one thing I've started getting worried about is whether youtube/google will eventually block/delete youtube/google accounts who use adblockers.

I don't really care about my youtube account but I have several gmail accounts and losing those would be awful.

I assume they won't ever go that far, but just the possibility is scary.

So is there an easy way to migrate all your stuff to some other email service and what are some good ones?

This was the final straw that pushed me to using stuff like piped and libretube exclusively.

I watched an interesting video about the cobra effect and think at least in my case, its relevant

I'm using the windows phone user agent solution. It loads the old version of YouTube and is much faster besides the lack of anti adblock

While using Ublock, change your user agent to chrome. Never seen the warning again.

Edit: I use Firefox.

UO devs deserve diamond medals. And everyone who contributes too.

i no longer get that warning. now the screen remains black and time is 00:00... but purge always works.

So im running pihole with ublock on Firefox in Linux. I’ve yet to see this warning. Any reason?

I'm still using uBlock Origin to block ads everywhere, but I no longer use YouTube directly, instead I go through Invidious or Piped.

Just had to do this to my wife's computer for the first time. Mine hasn't needed it just yet.

I saw those messages, turned my ad block off for a few days... turned it back on and messages didn't come back..

Should be possible to block uid by removing cookies from request (with some extension) which means google will have even less context for requests and even less chances to target an advertisement due to no data to add to profile.

I don't like to be preachy but thank God for memes I can share this knowledge with people. P.S.- I'm sumwa ova sainees mahselv

It's been working again for me but does anyone else have a really weird bug where youtube just starts refreshing several times throughout any given video?

I've gotten the warning, but I just close the window and watch the video. Is that how it's supposed to work? Because, if so, it's only a minor annoyance.
