    Instead of blocking them, this extension speeds them up to x16 and also mutes the ad. Experiencing a 30 second ad in 2 seconds is pretty funny. And it works on Edge and Chrome.

      While some paid ad blockers seem to work, the vast majority of tools don’t seem to do the trick.

      What a bunch of FUD. Firefox and uBlock Origin still work on Youtube just fine.

        Part of the reason I am not advocating for or against the extension or the source. People can judge for themselves. I thought it was funny (not a great idea but definitely an interesting implementation). For the record I use both ublock origin and Firefox, and I also run a pihole at home. I'm just putting out there that it exists.
