About Redactor

No longer have YouTube thumbnails or titles spoil your favorite movie or trailers. Punch in the appropriate keyword you want to hide and the extension will redact any video or short that has that word in the title. Maybe your feed is riddled with the name of the newest Youtuber who got cancelled and you're sick of it? Put in their name and move on like everyone else should. No worries, if you find yourself curious anyway hovering or clicking the video will still work the same.
