Cannot confirm, in my usage I have never encountered this. I use Newpipe almost daily and do not have a YT login.

Occasionally Google has done something (deliberately or coincidentally) to limit third party app access, but that’s usually worked around very quickly.

It’s been going on for months, especially VPN users.
