- therein 3y agoAs far as I can tell, they are leaving Silicon Valley IPs to the end of the rollout.
- applecrazy 3y agothis is untrue. located in the bay area and getting dinged hard on most of my devices
- therein 3y agoInteresting. Maybe it is Google Fiber in Bay Area, or something more specific like that. I get it on my devices when I travel outside Bay Area and my friends everywhere else are getting the treatment that people are complaining about. But with just uBlock Origin, haven't seen anything pertaining ads on YouTube on Google Fiber in Bay Area.
- mantra2 3y agoI don’t think they’ve rolled it out to everyone yet.
- pests 3y agoThey haven't. I was hit just last week.
- uoaei 3y agouMatrix breaks so much across the entire internet that I feel like it has an effect here. But I haven't done any tests to confirm that.
- bluescrn 3y agoCurrently doesn't seem to affect logged out users. So I just logged out.
- sphars 3y agoThis explains why I haven't seen the popup yet. I'm logged out on FF, logged in on Chrome (I have premium), but do all casual YT viewing in FF.
- bonton89 3y agoOne of my PCs never had an account and the ad blocker no longer works. My other PC appears to be logged into my throwaway account and the most I ever saw one message about blocking.
- Semaphor 3y agouBO + uMatrix, got the nag and the 3-video warning. Adding "uBlock filters – Annoyances" fixed it for me.
- venatiodecorus 3y agoI used to use uMatrix before it ceased development, but eventually switched over to only uBlock advanced mode. Do you find it still works fine? What cases do you keep uMatrix around for?
- brigandish 3y agoThe UI is superior, in my opinion. Better colours; much clearer about which connections are made or attempted; less interaction with typing out rules or looking at such rules. If I could get the uMatrix "skin" on top of uBlock Origin that would be great.
- freedomben 3y agoYep, and uBO is low resolution compared to uMatrix. I rejoice in being able to decide whether CSS, XHR, scripts, etc should be allowed on each domain. uBO doesn't get that fine grained even in advanced mode
