Then your uBlock Origin filters aren't working properly. See this thread for instructions on how to purge and update your filters to block YouTube's ads and YouTube's adblocker blocker.

I mean after clearing the cache it disappears. But I've seen the "your video player will be blocked" 3 or 4 times during the past few months maybe.

Those 3 or 4 times may have been after Google had updated their anti-adblocking stuff and before uBlock Origin had updated their anti-anti-adblocking stuff.

Also, do you have any other adblockers installed? Does your browser have its own adblocker? Either of those can cause interference with stuff like this.

Nope, I use Librewolf with uBlock Origin, uMatrix and BitWarden. Nothing else.

But yes, I haven't seen it in quite some time now.
