Yesterday at least. Same for me initially but now not so much. Time will tell. Current process is to disable the blockers then refresh until the video is served without an add, usually after two or three times, then re-enable.

Relevant: "Despite their destructive appearances even intense forest fires do not actually consumer much biomass. Only 0.1%–3.2%, since the larger trees and thicker branches that make up most of the biomass in a forest are good at resi
