Here is my two cents on that question

When I fill out a sponsorblock,
I feel like I have comitted an act of civic duty
I feel pride

I hope others feel that too

I want to ***** on the grave of Ivy Lee and Edward Bernays and sponsorblock lets me symbolically do it.

We are participants in an hyperwar and I hope our side win.

Fellow sponsorblocker,
I don't know who you are,
I don't know where you are
But can I see you and I am proud of you
Fellow sponsorblocker, I salute you O7

To stop the nasty goblins and their stooges
who constantly besiege our minds and try to infect them
##Is our solemn duty
in this digital hyperwar
To protect the innocent from their vile endeavour
to have less and want more

It's a community of people who suggest sections of video to skip for they are paid speech and other irritant such as interaction reminders, and other indesirable things, it also includes labelling, such as tangents which some people might want to also skip.

I think it is a natural part of us wanting to reclaim our attention back.

It's an addon and we the viewers crowdsource the labelling for the people who come after us

I don't know who ajay is but thank you ajay
