Sharing this: don't know why this works, but my dad found refreshing the cache in UBlock makes this thing finally shut the fuck up.
It updates Ublocks filters. They are updating those as YouTube changes things. Ublock has worked flawlessly on firefox YouTube for me so far. I have not even seen the popup once.
Plus you should add Anti-adblock killer by Reek, a combination of those 2 makes the entire problem go away... for now. I would also whitelist youtube in other addons like disconnect as those can also trigger youtubes immune response.
That thing is unmaintained and have not been updated for over 7 years. It will do absolutely nothing.
If you have issues with YouTube: https://old.reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/about/sticky?num=2
I have to add some things though:
Wow I didnt know it was unmaintained, I see that now. Well something I did actually worked because Im currently not getting any warnings from youtube
