YouTube Creator Blocker

This extension will close the tab if someone loads up any videos made by a defined list of content creators. I work at a school and see lots of videos making their way through the filtering/restrictions that are in place, so this gives the control to go after specific content creators and prevent users (students) from loading their videos. It also blocks inline playing so the cursor isn't just left hovering over a video to play the whole thing. I suppose this could be used by home users in the situation where a parent might not want their kids to see videos on their computer, then they'd need to apply the Windows registry setting below (if they know what they're doing).

To add creators, you'll need to get their channel username, not just their shown name, you can usually browse to their channel to find something like https://www.youtube.com/@UserName and you'll enter the UserName part. Here's where you'll put that username.

For Windows registry:
