Title: Youtube Restricted Mode when using opnsense
Post by: kompetenzteam on March 08, 2023, 10:58:46 pm
Hello,

just started building my Home Firewall with opnsense, great tool so far.
But suddenly on youtube all accounts are beeing forced into moderate/restrict Mode...

confirmed this is comming from opnsense, because when using fritzbox directly this doesnt occur.
Switching back to opnsense youtube get forced into those modes instantly...

Got the Webproxy transparent mode set up, which is working fine. (mostly)
Unbound is set to not use SafeSearch...
Webproxy Accesscontrol (extendes mode) -> Youtube Filter is set to none (by default)

Any ideas how to get this back to normal?
I couldn`t find any logs regarding this, and in the docu this isn`t stated at all.

Need some Help, dont want to reinstall the opnsense from scratch because of this..

Help is greatly appreciated :)

I noticed the same trying to join a youtube livestream a week or so ago but shrugged it off at the time as i had toggled my WIFI off on phone and still got error (initially was trying from laptop).

I stumbled over a linkedin post the other day i bookmarked as the link on it to a youtube vid was also tossing the error. I went into my UnBound/blocklist setting and safesearch was ON, after toggling to OFF and restarting the Unbound service, I still see errors on laptop. I popped open a guest profile and it worked fine however.

On an iphone where i was getting that error i rebooted the phone and the error also went away (didnt clear the cache or different profile either).

I'd try a different browser profile/guest mode or another browser completely to eliminate a cache issue at the browser level.

I have the same problem, if I'm connected to my Wlan behind opensense.
Unbound DNS: Blocklist /  Force SafeSearch is OFF
Connecting to my RouterWlan (it's my guest wlan) I have no issue.
