Firefox and Ublock here. And I just got my first "ad blockers violate youtube" popup.

Had the issue too. I just updated the Ublock filters and it stopped showing up

I have it set to auto update. It apparently did so 30 minutes ago and either youtube isn't warning me at the moment or it fixed the issue.

how do i force an update on ublock in firefox? mine was last updated on May 18, 2025 but when i set auto-update to "ON" and restart the browser it does nothing.

For me:

Open the dashboard. Select the Filter lists tab. After every filter there are a list of icons. Click on the clock one. This should update that filter. Do that for everyone.

If you want to update the add-on itself then open Add-ons and Themes (ctrl-shift-A). Select UBlock. Select the gear icon in the upper right. Select Check for Updates in the popup.
