    It works mostly, the conspiracy videos don't have a banner anymore, so that's at least a huge difference which this app and the creator deserves many kudos for. But I still have banners showing about suicide prevention, credentials like a doctor having his credentials shown below in such a banner. And the same goes for news channels with a message saying 'CBC is a Canadian broadcast'.

    Can't watch Youtube without it

    I got this extension because I get easily annoyed and distracted by the context notes and the way they ruin the ascetics of the webpage. Come to find out, most of the people trying to remove the context notes are exactly the kinds of people the notes are for. Go figure... 5/5 stars
