I experienced this. Every indication is that the video is playing, but it's actually an ad, and the controls don't work. Fortunately using private browsing mode still blocks it for some reason.

A/B Testing. Your account got selected for the adblock test. Your anonymous browser window did not. Close any video that loads ads and do something else for a while so they get the "user stopped watching the video" feedback.
I have it too. Apparently they're only rolled out to only some users so logging out (private browsing) opts you out for now. I got a 3 minute ad on a 4 minute video. Absolutely insane and delusional if you think I'm going to watch that
I think I've seen the same thing. I think it's caused by the adblocker trying to block the ad. That's why private browsing (which disables adblockers) blocks it.
I've seen some weird stuff regarding ads in the past few months. Like videos that complete the moment they start.
