I can't think of anything more "late stage capitalism" than one of the most central internet companies propping up a fake product to steal crumbs from affiliate links of all things.

Considering how central "creators" and entertainment are to Yankee culture, I wouldn't be surprised if this even led to a Congress hearing lol.

For YouTube, there's sponsorblock, including YouTube Revanced, but it's not 100% reliable (specially for less popular or non-English content).

Not that I know of. My comment was in reference to what is now rather ancient lore.
