Watching YouTube with ad blockers has become completely impossible. The service has introduced new protection: the video now immediately rewinds to the end

And sometimes it doesn’t start again at all

Google has come up with a new way to combat ad blockers for the YouTube service. Now, instead of reducing the loading speed, the service makes it so that after starting a video, it instantly rewinds to the end. 

This method is much more effective than the previous ones, since it simply does not allow users to watch the video. Perhaps craftsmen will find a way to bypass this obstacle, or the same blockers will learn how to do this, but for now the easiest way is to either pay for YouTube Premium or watch ads.
