Really interesting read about the history of YouTube adblocking, how the new detection works, how uBO is responding, and how not to block the new popups.

Has anybody else not seen an ad yet? I'm wondering if it's because I'm using Enhancer for youtube which also has an adblocking function 🤔
Did you not read the article?
I haven't seen any anti adblock things on youtube if that's what you mean
I haven't yet but I presume that's because I don't have an account - which according to the article they're targeting people by account.
For a day I got the no video but audio playing ads.
On my Shield where I don't have uBlock Origin, I get bombarded with ads.
Use smarttube
With uBlock Origin I'm not getting anything, but the Ghostery plugin with "adblocking enabled" set to on actually now returns a blank youtube site. As soon as I switch it off (so blocking trackers only) it works perfectly fine and with zero ads.
