I got the same answer from a friend of mine :) That's good for my but it does not help with my extension. I cannot tell the users go and use Brave. I am trying to find a way to avoid my extension being detected as an ad blocker

Best I managed with mine (which pressed Skip for you) was to make it mute ad-videos

So, you stopped blocking ads and muted them instead?

yeah, Google said this is an ad blocking extension when it got it to press the skip button. I was only making it for myself so I didn't want to risk get in my account banned by testing, testing, testing.
