Automatically skips most of the Youtube adds when the Skip button appears. The permissions required are only for the accessing the data on the Youtube website, which is great. Reaching the Skip button and clicking on it can be a problem for people with accessibility needs, so this add-on can be an important accessibility tool.

Is YouTube Skip Ad Safe?

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.

YouTube Skip Ad requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious.

Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.
