Is Ad-blocking for YouTube™ 2026 - Shield AdBlocker safe?

Low risk

Shield AdBlocker fetches a remote Google Sheets list and redirects matching browsing destinations through affiliate links.

The extension loads a CSV from Google Sheets on install or startup and stores domain-to-affiliate-link mappings locally. When a browser tab navigates to a matching HTTP or HTTPS site, it rewrites the tab to the affiliate URL and later restores the original destination.
