Going on 48 hrs now with full on lock down. Previous locks would be a few hours then days or weeks without the warning block page.
Private browsing still OK. Account log out still works. Those might be next.
What is the plan?

Is the latest version of Firefox experiencing a bug that is causing ads to appear despite having Adblock Plus installed? Users are seeking clarification and solutions to this issue.

I don't know if it has to do with Adblock but the layout of watching a video on YouTube through Firefox has changed. The comments are on the right of the playing video and the suggested videos are below the playing video.

Looks like YouTube is refusing to play videos when the Adblock is on and it will skip right to the end of the video.

It seems like YouTube is indeed tightening its grip on ad-blocker users, with the extended lockdown indicating a serious push against ad-blocking software.

Anyone else noticing a slow down of YouTube over the past few days? A video today froze up shortly after starting and worked after I refreshed the page. I've also noticed YouTube is slow when clicking on anything on the page.

If private browsing and logging out still work, those might be temporary workarounds. Have you tried reaching out for support or checking if others are experiencing the same issue? Hopefully, there’s a resolution soon—keeping an eye on updates might help! My best friend recommended UKWritings when I needed help to write my essay. I placed an order here
