My wife and I have noticed that all our computers today have been showing quite a few ads on youtube. We have ublock on just about every device and Firefox on a majority of them. Anyone else having the same issue?
Ublock will likely catch up, but you should also install sponsorblock. It uses user generated data, I.e someoen clicks “ad started and stopped here in the video” to skip not only YouTube ads, but ads done by youtuber directly, sponsorships/calls to action like buying merc, etc.
Its super good, and will work on tons of video. You can even help by being the one to click the “ad started/stop” time if you see an ad.
Hmm haven’t seen that yet personally but I’m sure YouTube is always trying things to get around adblockers and probably A/B testing it on various accounts or countries. You could try making sure unlocks rules/definitions are up to date.
Unrelated but I also have been using sponsor block which skips over in-video sponsors which is nice. Though it’s community updated so very new videos might not have the sponsor segments marked yet.
