I have both Ublock Origins and Ghostery installed. Whenever I open a webpage (zdnet.com) with a embedded video, the video is blocked (black hole, no controls). If I click to unblock Ublocks and unblock all trackers in Ghostery, video remains unavailable. I do not have any other extensions or plug-ins. Firefox is current and up to date: Vers 57.0.4 (64 bit).

What else can be blocking videos....Note: I do not get any alert advising to allow flash.

Are you reloading the page after unblocking uBlock and Ghostery?

Yes, that doesn't seem to change anything

Could be a CSP issue. You can check the Web Console for messages about blocked content.
