Youtube now shows a 5 second ad

[QuietBeat]

Description of the issue:
When I first started using Brave 2 weeks ago, I could watch YouTube continuously without ads but as of last Friday, after each video finishes, an ad appears.

How can this issue be reproduced?

1. Open Youtube
2. Select a video
3. Wait for it to finish

Expected result:
The next video plays without any interruptions.

Brave Version( check About Brave):
1.59.124

Additional Information:
I only have the built-in Brave shield and no extensions.

Update (10/29/2023): If you are fully updated (both Brave version ad ad-blocker component) and are still being detected by YoutTube, it may be the extensions you have installed. There are some extensions that will trigger Youtube’s detection that may need to be disabled or you will continue to see these prompts. This especially applies to 3rd party ad-blockers you may have installed, since they all update at different times and they may not all have include a fix for YouTube’s ad detection. O…

I originally though that I had no extensions enabled but that wasn’t true, I forgot that when I installed Brave, it imported a bunch of stuff from Edge which included some extensions. When I clicked on Manage Extensions, I saw that I had ‘Block Tube’ and after disabling it, YouTube now works properly…hope this helps.
