I got that as well, this was at the top of the page and was a pain in the ass to get it to shut up. Seemed weird to me too.

same here except no video to be found , just audio . surprised Adblock didn't catch it .
in firefox , if you click the audio mute icon on the open tab , it goes away .
 
Did you know that Adblock takes money from Google (YT) to allow their shit through? There are others, but I don't remember who. No? Well now you do. uBlock Origin has never done anything like that, it blocks every single one. I haven't seen single ad on youtube for like 10 years. Literally not a single one.

Hmmm. I run Adblock and watch a metric shit ton of you tube vids and never get an ad. You sure you had your AB set up right?
 
noticed that too, adblock user can't see the ad but can hear it. never happened before.
 
I've been running Ublock Origin on my phone for a while, and it works well.

Sounds like it's time to ditch AdBlock+ on the PCs. Thanks! :beer:

pffft, I run AdBlock, uOrigin, and NoScripts. they probably all cancel each other out. :homer:
 
So, I disabled AdBlock and added Ublock.

Went to look at ProjectWin's truck audio thread, and all the pics are gone! I opened the thread in Safari (instead of FF), and they are there.

Pics still there for everyone else? WTF? Even with both blockers disabled. Cleared my cache, nothing.

Are these Facebook linked pics? Example:
https : //scontent-atl3-1.xx.fbcdn. net/v/t1.0-9/116242374_177042373799548_4847278114389531222_o.jpg?_nc_cat=100&_nc_sid=0be424&_nc_ohc=zhGSVHJYvQoAX_L_Ps0&_nc_ht=scontent-atl3-1.xx&oh=f34b27e21c8e3d3e7e5213e5816e2960&oe=5F53F611

Maybe FB chaged the link, and Safari is just displaying them from its' cache?

:confused:
 
Firefox with the Facebook container active blocks them because they are used as tracking for Facebook. ublock origin isn't blocking them on my setup...
