Ads basically shows up as a black box with sounds and a skip button.

Did the issue present with default Shields settings? (yes)

Does the site function as expected when Shields are turned off? (yes)

Is there a specific Shields configuration that causes the site to break? If so, tell us that configuration. (no):

Does the site work as expected when using Chrome? Yes

Force an update on Brave Ad Block Updater - Version: 1.0.375 or better in brave://components/ The reload.

Also try to logout and re-login into youtube.

Are you using a VPN?

I did not use any VPN. Even though if we used VPN, I suppose ad blocking should be fine with a VPN.

I think we found the culprit.

Brave Ad Block Updater - Version: 0.0.0.0

Status - Update error

Check for update

That was the output of the component so, I guess I have to repair or reinstall brave or else it could be a server error.

same happened with me in youtube just now so i came here ,

and also space bar is glitchy only in YouTube . if i press it should play or pause but for some reason it is activated twice , so the action cancels out , i checked on other sites it works fine and it is not a hardware issue , only happens in youtube , from 2 days , majorly from last update , it does work fine like 30 % of time , it also stops playing video if the spacebar is pressed while video on YT was paused
