Youtube Restricted Mode when using opnsense

[kompetenzteam]

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.

Still having this issue?

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.

[rudiratlos63]

any news or solutions for that problem?

Are you using any Blocklist in Unbound? Check if "Blocklist.site Youtube" is enabled.

Hi all,

Sorry to tap on this topic. I am having the opposite issue. I am trying to block Facebook and YouTube using the Unbound DNS - > Blocklist but both site still able to access.

I also setup the firewall rules to block the Alias (Block_Social_Media) but still same, able to access from the client machine.

Anyone has any tip what happen here and how to fix it?

Thank you very much in advance.

Probably because your browser uses DoT by default and circumvents your OpnSense's DNS.

It may be a wpad error too. Do you have a pcap? Or mdns being sent to regular dns.
