Extension to Remove Video Overlays on Web

Patrick Bushe · May 1, 2026

Many news sites move their video player into a floating box in the corner once you scroll past it. Ultimate Adblocker can hide these: turn on "Other annoyances" in its settings, which adds the EasyList Annoyances list and its rules for floating video players on the sites it covers. Some of these players come from video ad networks that the default settings already block. Coverage depends on the list, so a site that changed its layout recently may keep showing its player until the list catches up.
