Is VPN Unblocker for YouTube safe?
VPN Unblocker for YouTube routes YouTube traffic through proxy servers configured by yt.nobansocial.com.
On startup it requests configuration from yt.nobansocial.com/config.json using a generated device ID, extension version, and hash. The response supplies domains and proxy settings; when enabled, the extension installs a PAC script that sends matching YouTube traffic through those configured proxies instead of directly.
