YouTube videos unavailable mystery

  1. So for many years I've watched certain vids on YT, but all of a sudden as of a few hours ago they have become unavailable. I get a black screen with the message saying this video has been blocked in your country. I have Opera that has a VPN, but the same thing happens whether I use the VPN or not.
    Why all of a sudden? I've not changed any settings, etc, etc, so why is this happening?

    Most likely some copyright owner put a block on them. It says "blocked in your country" because it can be adjusted per country but most copyright owerns block videos in any country.
