Random pausing of videos: is Youtube futher Detecting and Dogging users with ab blockers again?

Hello.

In the last few days, Youtube videos have been pausing unprompted. I am able to "unpause"/get the video moving again, only for it to pause again shortly after. This issue may have been triggered by a browser update (Firefox).

For those who are familiar, of course, could this Google/Youtube/Alphabet dogging and creeping on people's devices again, seeking out adblockers (uBlockOrigin in this case), or is there something else afoot?

Cheers
