The you're vs your mistake comes from pronunciation. They sound alike.
Non-native speakers learn english through written text, and you're doesn't look like your at all (and in their native languages, the way one would read those usually doesn't sound alike either), and usually you would lear first you are instead of you're.
So, yeah, no, you're vs your is usually a native speaker mistake, since you have to learn to speak the language before writting it in order to make this mistake, something that you only do for your mother tongue.
