If it is it will be in the browsers settings, surely. Have you attempted to check the browsers documentation on private browsing?

Place a link to Youtube on the Firefox toolbar then right click on that link and select Open in New Private Window.
It's the same for Edge and for Chrome it's Open in Incognito Window.
It is best if you enable the Bookmark Toolbar in all 3 browsers.

I don't use Chrome and rarely use Edge, but there does exist a Firefox addon for what you want. For this addon to be able to work, you only need to allow it to run in private windows.

Download Always Open Privately for Firefox. Always opens certain websites (configurable list of websites) in a private window. Needs the permission to run in private windows.

Install ghostery extension. Whenever you try to play a video and it says ad blockers violate policy, ghostery will popup in the top right corner and give you a button to open the url in a private window

At least for me, YouTube videos never say that uBlock Origin violates anything whatsoever. All it does is just play the videos with no ads in them whatsoever.

works for me until i compile about 3g of cache. then it starts saying that. if i care enough, i'll go into temp and clear the cache and it'll work again for a while, but most of the time i just let it open in private and it always functions. they'll get rid of the aggressive adblocker policy when they start losing traffic tho
