Update ublock filters.
I did, but after the 3 videos, it's no longer a pop-up that can be removed, it doesn't load the video at all. Annoying as fuck. I use incognito mode as a workaround currently.

didnt work
Update filters and clear your cache and cookies for YouTube.com. Resolves it for me.
Everyone should always clear their cookies and cache after each session, with a whitelist of course.
Use FreeTube as a desktop app or use a VPN set to a different country. Canada seems to be working fine for me.
NewPipe works too
you very likely have another extension that youtube is detecting. I had to disable enhancer and then I stopped getting the popup
Clear your cookies.
It can be removed by ublock. I had that screen for weeks. You most likely have another adblock that is detected. Remove it and clear cache. Ublock should work at the moment. But it is a war. Once in a while it stops working for a few hours and then you have to update filters again
