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.

    Same here. If I’m watching a biography about Nathaniel Hawthorne, then why would I want to see an ad where someone is twerking their ass in my face?

      A year or so I turned off targeted ads from Google. I very quickly noticed an increase in ads with anime tiddies.

      I guess Google sees a correlation between people who worry about privacy, and people who are likely to click on anime tiddies…
