Do they actually lose anything from these sponsorships if you just skip that part? Because that's basically what the addon does. I'm not sure these sponsorships go as far as looking at minutes watched or whatever, I assumed it's a pre-agreed amount.

must be, because half of them have the sponsor segment as its own chapter in the video, making it super easy to skip. I don't imagine they would make it as easy if they really wanted you to watch it.
