Safari 14 ads not blocked

Post by Angelica97 »

I have been using latest Safari 14.0.2 on my new macbook since 15 Dec 2020. All seemed ok with ABP for a couple of weeks and then I started seeing all ads on bbc news and youtube. "Allow acceptable ADs" is unchecked. I dont see any other options or controls in the ABP control panel.

I am experiencing similar issues. I would really appreciate if this issue was fixed. Currently, there are ads for me on Youtube (the post-video ones asking you to sign up for a certain advertised service), and on YouTube Music (full video ads).

Solved. I noticed that Safari 14 (last version I have been using was 11) has a lot of controls in settings. First among such is CONTENT BLOCKERS. Somehow it was set OFF for bbc.com and hence the nuisance of ads. Turned it ON and viola!
