I get there's a heap of people on here who've somehow never seen these new anti-popup measures before, but they're definitely becoming more prevalent.

I switched to uBlock and purged the caches and it seems to have fixed the issue (for now anyway)

At some point I'll have to find a more permanent solution like switching browsers but right now things are working

never seen the youtube anti-adblock stuff.

Mullvad vpn + mullvad browser + ublock origin + never logging into google....

Also freetube, also newpipe...

Maybe they don't bother trying to block vpn users?
