About YouTube Pause Lock

Prevents users from repeatedly pausing YouTube videos by automatically locking the pause button after a video has been resumed. This is a great tool for any content creators who react to YouTube videos and find themselves pausing much too often (Ethan Klein). By default, the lock duration is 10 seconds. This however is configurable.
