In this PR from TeamNewPipe TeamNewPipe/NewPipeExtractor#1272 they have found another workaround extracting visitor data from the service itself instead of generating it locally.

Adding that this is replicated in a Linux container, though this is likely affecting everyone

Good news I was able to parse the json and get the visitor data, all tests are successful 😀
I'll clean the code a bit and open the PR when it's ready.

I’m still experiencing the same issue after updating the package to the latest version. Has anyone else tried it?
