Youtube partially evading AdGuard - adverts start but are cut short rather than eliminated (editted Title) #2507

AdGuard Extension version

4.2.168

Browser version

Firefox 116.0.3 (64 bit)

OS version

Linux (Xubuntu)

What filters do you have enabled?

AdGuard Base filter, AdGuard Chinese filter, AdGuard Dutch filter, AdGuard French filter, AdGuard German filter, AdGuard Japanese filter, AdGuard Russian filter, AdGuard Spanish/Portuguese filter, AdGuard Turkish filter

Oh, and I've got some other filters that are probably on the dropdown above, but there is no sane way of comparing and ticking that list and the longform list in AdGuard|Settings which are in different orders... The 'report a bug' button isn't working, so I guess that means I have 3 bugs to report. This one now:

What Stealth Mode options do you have enabled?

Hide your search queries, Send websites signals not to track you, Self-destruction of third-party cookies, Hide Referrer from third parties

Issue Details

Since this morning (and not long since the update to 4.2.168 happened) YouTube has been getting adverts through. I'm sickened, and all the more grateful for the work of those generating AdGuard! Thanks!

The adverts start and sometimes seem to terminate early (each advert starts then gets killed), but they are occurring at the beginnings of, and midway through, videos. It seems like they are clashing with AdGuard, but not being rejected as before. I've been using AdGuard seamlessly for a year/many years since switching from AdBlockPlus. No other local changes (that I know of or can think of) coincided with this. I suspect that it's YouTube...

By the way, is this what people see on the internet? Wow. If Ad blocking ever becomes impossible, I might just stop using the net.

Expected Behavior

No adverts at all.

Additional Information

I have other firefox extensions running but don't think that they will be interfering with this: NoScript HTTPS Everywhere RYS (Remove Youtube suggestions) VDH YouTube Audio (Enabled but not activated) YouTube Shorts Block

Can the issue be reproduced if you install AdGuard on a new, separate profile using the default set of filters?

I'll try. Meanwhile, Youtube is now managing to place static adverts on the webpage. Hideous!
