Twitch ADS

Free ad blockers can bypass Twitch ads and unblock very easily. But Adguard still hasn't found a solution for this problem. I think Adguard signed a deal with Twitch.

There is no deal.
Please note all filter lists only use a loophole and Twitch usually fixes it very fast if it gets known.
Also they are not showing to everybody. At least I cannot reproduce just now.

I can't reproduce it either.

Twitch has been actively pushing out new ads and anti-adblock mechanisms which affects all ad blockers including AdGuard and uBlock Origin.

Its a matter of time until ad blockers won't work at all on Twitch anymore, requiring a Twitch Turbo subscription to remove them.

What kind of conspiracy is that?!

I don't see any ads on Twitch at the moment, maybe check your filters?
Twitch is doing great at stopping AdBlockers, so what makes you think they won't patch the other methods?

I just got ads on twitch, but like others have said Twitch has been working HARD at plugging ad blocking methods. Sometimes they will plug a new blocking method people find in less than 24 hours. They are very serious about trying to stop it.

Can confirm: AdGuard does not block Twitch ads on Windows anymore. -
Ads are not shown every time, but any time I start a new stream.

The blog post:
is therefore not representing AdGuards current performance.

Yeah, eventually it won't be possible to block Twitch ads anymore. Probably sooner than later.

Like Boo Berry said, with the amount of work Twitch is putting in to stopping ad blocking it will only be a matter of time before the only way you're getting ad free twitch is either by subscribing to the channel or subscribing to twitch prime.

For the time being however I have found a Chrome (I'm using it on Edge just fine) extension (also available for Firefox). So far after 3 days use, I haven't seen a single ad. But that could change any day now.

TTV LOL Chrome (should work with any Chromium based browser) extension

TTV Firefox Extension

Here is the GitHub page for the extension as well

TTV LOL GitHub page

Also, this page I found pretty handy. It's kept up to date with info on different twitch ad blocking methods and how effective they are at the moment. The U-block Origin user script method on that page worked great when I tried it on Firefox (Before TTV LOL was restored to the Firefox extensions store).

TwitchAdSolutions Github Page

Direct link to the U-block Origin method on that Github page

Edit: The Firefox version of the TTV LOL extension is back up on Firefox's extension store. The developer said it was removed for " synchronous web requests being made". They submitted a fix, and it just went back up a few mins ago.
