Ad block not working anymore on youtube

[IHiJump]

I will remember that and dig more next time.

Looks like we have a fix in for this:
https://old.reddit.com/r/brave_browser/comments/1hinfh3/youtube_now_suddenly_blocks_me_for_using_brave/m31kcmw/

In brave://components force an update of Brave Ad Block Updater too Version: 1.0.9653 or better

Then refresh Youtube.com tabs (important). Let me know if it helps

Ensure no other adblocker extension is enabled.

It worked. I like Brave for its speed and also plays vids in 1080 and even 1440 something when Chrome was only doing 720.

Im so lame I cant even figure out how to log out of YOUTUBE! LOL

[Saoiray]

lol. Honestly, you’ll get logged out when you clear cookies so it may not matter but doing it first and kind of leaving makes sure you’re not accidentally triggering again. But click on your profile picture or whatever in the corner to pull up the option to log out. Such as:

Youtube may also be somehow factoring in the Brave agent string into their adblock detection.

If I change my agent to firefox (windows) using the developer tools (network tab, “more network conditions” button) then it also works around the issue.

I did the component thing my videos are working now but there’s no sound
hehe, any idea what to do

[PrinceEthan1226]

It works! Tks so much

[Fourchaise]

That’s it, the update 1.0.9653 solved the problem. Wasn’t my cookies or extensions as I suspected.

Dunno why Youtube is so set on making me watch ads. First rule… if I see an advertisement for something, I’ll never buy it.

This worked wonders! Thanks!
