YESSS this is perfect :P Something you're sick of seeing on Youtube? (For me this is Minecraft) just type it into the filter and it's just ..gone- given of course that it's in the title of the clip. Anything else just add it and both the thumbnail and link vanishes. THANK YOU for making this.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

YTBlock - Block any content from YouTube™ requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
