I dont know how to code for shit, just make it so I can block videos by date range and we'll all be happy

You gotta add playlist blocking too but if you click on a playlist you don't see blocked videos with blocked words in the playlist so thats why i am giving 5 stars
That being said,a device sync feature would make this extension 1000x more worth it.
