YouTube Ad-Blockers

This is the most useful extension for watching a YouTube video seamlessly without getting interrupted by Google's petty ads (Why does big companies ruin everything single innocent thing anyway?)

Basically, it just blocks every single ad that tries to bother you and keep you away from watching your video. This includes ads that are inappropriate and not safe for children. It seems so necessarily, and the good thing is, most of them are free! Yay! No ads! Literally a haven for us, right?

Not for long. YouTube used to be the best and only video site I relied on for years, but now it's a goddang mess in this 2020s decade. It's a pile of kaka that smells like greed. You know why?

IN AROUND 2023, THEY LITERALLY JUST BUILT A SYSTEM THAT ABSOLUTELY ERADICATES EVERY SINGLE AD-BLOCKER, DISPLAY A BLACK SCREEN SO THAT THE BEAUTIFUL VIDEO YOU'RE WATCHING CAN'T PLAY, AND SHOWS YOU THE TEXT:
‘Ad-blockers violate YouTube's Terms of Service’

Like dude, who the hell would read ToSes? I mean, good for you if you had the time and balls to read them, but this is inhumane to sane people. There are millions of people using YouTube, and the majority can't waste their time having to buy premium for just the sake of ‘removing ads’. There are thousands of poor people, you know?

A literal dumb move that Google pulled-off out of their scummy arses. YouTube was good before, and now they're making it dystopic and unpleasant and immoral, and… yeah.

I hope the world will be better soon :`)

Example:
Person from 2022: Oh god, these YouTube Ad-Blockers are saving me a ton of time to not watch these annoying ads that come out of my (f-word)-ing screen! Enabling extensions like this make me feel like I'm in heaven! Betchya YouTube couldn't do anything about it >:D

Person from 2024: Erm, actually, you can't use them anymore, since YouTube (or Google actually) heard about this situation and just straight up built a system that blocks every ad-blocker and notifies you with a black screen telling you that you ‘violated’ their ToS and that YouTube Ads actually ‘benefit’ those you watch and create the wonders of art.

Person from 2022: For realsies? I am gonna experience this in 2 years?

Person from 2024: Yeah, sorry, bro. The world got way worse after COVID, at least in terms of technology, but even then we still have global warming. This planet sucks, and it's our fault.

Person from 2022: True, and to you, Google, insults Google in the most unfriendly manner. I WILL BLOCK YOUR HEART ARTIERIES, IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT, GOOGLE??? (F-WORD) YOU CAPITALISM, AND GREEDY BIG COMPANIES! Drops f-bomb and shows their middle finger

Person from 2024: Uh… you consider that if Google hears about this, and about free speech, um…

Person from 2022: Friendly goodbye, then goes outside and touches grass
