Partly because the demand to find a YouTube NonStop that lets you skim YouTube&#8217;s set-timer is not that high.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, it is not quite beneficial to let users skip to the next video because that would mean missing an ad.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is also not beneficial if the view is not active because the advertiser won\u2019t be paying for ads placed during that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, YouTube wants to make sure you are online and active in order to play you more ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regardless of what they want, if it doesn\u2019t align with what you want, you can put a stop to it like this:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><em>Go to your browser&#8217;s web store<\/em><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>To go to the web store on chrome, you can type the following URL: https:\/\/chrome.google.com\/webstore<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\"><li>To access it from wherever you are on the browser, you need to click on the three dots on the right top side of your screen.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Then, choose more tools and go to extensions.<\/li><li>Click on the three horizontal lines this time on the right top side.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Click on the link that shows up upon clicking that button.<\/li><li><em>Download YouTube Nonstop extension&nbsp;<\/em><\/li><li>Once you download it, you want to make sure it&#8217;s working by activating it.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#ffcec6\">\ud83d\udccc&nbsp; &nbsp; If anything is unclear, watch this video below.
