Sponsorblock is the reason I'm confident that no matter what they try people can and will find ways to overcome it.

Out of all things I enjoy sponsorblock the most. Such a great QOL improvement, amazed I lived without it for so long

Shit if I have to I'll download every single YT video I wanna watch with yt-dlp and watch em in VLC/MPC/Plex/any other video player in the world lol. My eyeballs see advertisements when I choose for them too.

Someone will learn how to use AI against them.
