AI product read

Block YouTube's 'Video Paused. Continue Watching?' idle-detection popup to allow uninterrupted video playback

YouTube pauses videos and shows a confirmation popup when it detects the user has been idle for a long time (via the 'lact' activity timestamp). This extension prevents that interruption.

User installs the extension. It automatically runs in the background: the content script resets the _lact activity timer every 10 seconds on YouTube pages, and the service worker uses declarativeNetRequest to rewrite any lact parameter to 0 in URL requests. No user interaction or configuration needed.

Target users: YouTube viewers who listen to long playlists, music mixes, or ambient content in the background / Users who leave YouTube running in a non-focused tab and want uninterrupted playback

The extension's promotion of Manganum on install/update is not a paid feature but is notable user-hostile behavior (opens tab without consent)

Monetization

No paid features detected

No payment processing, subscription, billing API, premium tier, or upgrade UI found. The extension monetizes via ads/promotions for other extensions (Manganum), not through paid features of its own. The 'pro' keyword hits in locale files are false positives — they are Slavic-language prepositions meaning 'for', not 'professional' tier references.

Confidence: 95
Payment platform: --
Source: AI / High
Login required: No
Reason: No login UI, authentication calls, account creation, or credential storage found. The extension operates entirely locally on YouTube/Music pages without any user identity requirement.
