Safari AdBlock blocks Youtube video ads on the first video you watch, but DOESN'T block ads if you click on a related video (on the right side of the screen)

I have Safari Adblock installed on my Macbook Air. Filters are updated.

I go to youtube.com and click on a 'recommended for me' video thats on the front page, I get no ads.

But now that I just watched that video and I see a related video on the right side, if I click on it then Safari AdBlock does not work and I either get A) pop-up ads or B) 30 second video ads.

Any idea what is going on? AdBlock otherwise seems to work perfect except when you are on youtube and click on a related video on the right side of the screen.

    Hello Everyone,

    We are currently aware of this problem and are working on it. We already discovered the issue and hope to fix it asap. I'm also a Mac user and I know how frustrating it is to see those Youtube Ads again!

    Have a nice day!

    Kind Regards,
    Jérémy Keusters
