Anecdotally, I was hit by the Youtube clampdown on Ad-Blockers and it worked. I couldn't watch without disabling my blockers. My workaround strategy then became to open the link I wanted to view in a private (Firefox) window where I wasn't logged in to my Youtube account. It was inconvenient, but it did the trick for my needs. Now, in the last five days, I am no longer being stopped by Youtube's message when clicking on videos. As if the entire initiative has gone away. Has anyone else experienced this turn of events? One theory is that one or several of my ad-blockers (Ghostery, UBlock Origin, Enhancer) have since implemented a workaround that defeats Google, but I have yet to do any serious tests.
