When we plugged Firewalla Blue to the router, we can't make YouTube comments and there would be no.  When I search for my favorite Chinese drama, there didn't appear in my search results.  There are also more actions and unusual beheaviour when this "YouTube is in the restricted mode appear.  This only happens when the firewall is plugged in.  This has only happened recently probably last month.  No rules were added to the current ones.

Please help?

Thank you very much.

  Found some discussion in the community that pointed to "Safe Search".  I disabled "Safe search" and YouTube behaves as expected now.

  Could Firewalla Technical Teach looks into this?  Could you fix the bug so that once Safe Search is enabled, it does what it says without stopping other functions of at least with YouTube.

  Safe search is a function of youtube, firewalla just turns it on.  So firewalla can't really control what youtube filter or what allows when the safe search function on.  (this is the same as google,bing ... searches)

  It's part of the Ad block. Change it from strict to default and it should work.

  No it is not. Safe search is a different thing that's not related to ad blocker.
