Does it make the sponsor sections of the videos go away too?

No, but SponsorBlock[0] is fantastic for that. I even have it setup on my home server[1] so it skips sponsor segments on my Apple TV, which is where we watch most of our YouTube.

It makes them less annoying. With premium if you hit the scrub forward button once it jumps directly to the end of the sponsor section
