If you are using Firefox and have ublock Origin, go to: tools->Add-on and themes->uBlock Origin, in the menu beside the on-off toggle choose preferences. Uncheck uBlock filters. and click apply.
Now choose a youtube video in another tab.
Go back to uBlock preferences, and enable the filters again and apply.
If you don’t have Firefox install it, and If you don’t have uBlock Origin install it.

Whenever I get this, I open the settings for uBlock Origin (click the gear icon in the Firefox extension) and manually update everything in the filter lists. Just click the clock symbol at the end of each item and it’ll spin for a minute, then turn green.
After that, I completely refresh my YouTube page (Ctrl+F5 on PC; close tab and open a new tab on mobile) and it will load videos again.
Google and uBlock Origin are in an arms race, trying to one-up one another. Once you get a notice from YouTube, usually uBlock Origin has a fix for it within the day.
Tech notes for those interested: When you browse to a webpage, it stores a copy of the site on your PC, so if you go back to the site later or hit refresh on the page, it will load the local files instead of downloading the whole page from scratch again.
But if you want to force a website to load completely from scratch instead of grabbing recently cached files, hit Ctrl+F5. You need to do this to fully reload the YouTube page, it else you’ll just get the notice page again.
