Has anyone notice that sometimes plugins like ublock origin is not working on youtube?

I’ve noticed it happening in the past.

I suspect there’s a bit of an arms race between uBlock origin and large and networks like Google/YouTube.

So there will always be a short response time between anti-adblock changes made by websites, and the adblockers releasing a way to get around them.

Hopefully any change is temporary.

But also yeah YouTube on chrome is Google’s home turf. It’s going to be tough to block ads there. I suggest Firefox.

Sounds about right, so usually when uBlock Origin is “acting up”, one possible reason is because a website changed its code, possibly specifically to defeat ad-blockers.

So, the usual first response is to go into the options and update all the filter lists.
