Youtube adblock blocking
I know the topic of whether adblock is piracy is debated, but I am guessing there are a lot of adblock users here and I was wondering if anyone has seen the youtube adblock warning message in the wild. I use ublock origin and still haven't seen it once.

Interesting! So if I'm understanding correctly, the scare about YouTube stopping adblocked users was being caused by the Enhancer for Youtube extension? If so, that's a relief.
Uhhhhh not quite, the fact that we're probably not going to see the "stop blocking ads plz" message doesn't mean that Youtube can't block access to their website with an adblocker. It's entirely possible, there are websites that already do it.
Not really. The “Enhancer for YouTube” was causing problem with the YouTube anti-block to show up. So disabling what effectively allowed uBlock to block those anti-Adblock notices. I think they now fixed the issues with “Enhancer for YouTube” extension.
