SRR60/SRS60 How to block youtube?

Hello. We are using Wi-Fi using SSR60 and SRS60. However, even if you enter YouTube through the block sites function, YouTube is not blocked. Is there any way?

    The legacy site block implementation was able to "jump in" on plain text http only.

     

    In the year 2022 where more and more systems make use of encrypted DNS access, it's no longer possible to look for these in the data path either, so another approach to the data path is becoming more or less obsolete, too.

     

    The only place where you can restrict the Web access is doing it on the client system.
