About

Ad Blocker for YouTube™ removes preroll ads with two simple modes:

Stealth — mutes the player and auto-clicks “Skip Ad” when available (minimal footprint).

Aggressive — blocks known ad loaders (IMA/VMAP). If anything slips through, it fast-forwards the ad.

Why users like it

⚡ Fast & lightweight — tiny content script + static rules

🧭 Simple popup — on/off, Stealth/Aggressive switch, blocked-ads counter

🔕 Polite status toast — shows “Skipping ads…” during short waits, then vanishes

🔒 Privacy-friendly — no data collection, no analytics, no remote code

How it works

Declarative Net Request rules stub ad SDK loads (IMA) and return empty VMAP where appropriate.

The content script watches YouTube’s built-in ad state to mute/skip or fast-forward ad playback.

Settings (enabled/mode/counter) are stored locally via Chrome Sync.
