How does the free extension,
YouTube Unblocker for Google Chrome, work?
The moment you reach YouTube’s website and access a blocked video, YouTube Unblocker tries to open the video via foreign proxy servers. If it succeeds, the unblocked video will start directly and automatically.
Why should you absolutely install
the YouTube Unblocker for Google Chrome?
YouTube Unblocker’s essential advantage is that the proxy server is only automatically used by the add-on in case of selecting a blocked video. Otherwise, you will browse without a proxy server, as you would normally do, and thus as fast as ever.
Why is an ‘unblocker’ for Chrome needed at all?
YouTube is by far one of the most popular video-sharing platforms in this universe. Billions of users enjoy watching news, music or video clips on YouTube every day. The combination of uploading, commenting and evaluating attracts a large viewership. For a couple of years, however, watching videos on YouTube is not as fun as it used to be and a lot of users are familiar with the following situation: You want to watch a particular video, but the screen remains black and a blocking message appears instead, telling you that the content of the selected video is not available in your country. Additionally, many other search hits show the same result and, moreover, certain videos are not even listed in the YouTube video search of your country. In contrast, users from other countries have no trouble watching the videos whatsoever. This circumstance frustrates YouTube users- for good reason.

Why do you need YouTube Unblocker for Google Chrome?
All around the world, more than 800 million users visit YouTube regularly to watch music videos and much more. Thus, it is the biggest video and music platform on the planet, offering numerous videos that can’t be watched on any other video platforms such as MyVideo, Clipfish and the like. However, viewers from various countries are sometimes excluded from viewership, because their country is subject to certain restrictions regarding YouTube and videos are often censored.
The reasons for blocking a video vary. In Germany, for instance, the on-going dispute between YouTube and the German collecting society (GEMA) is accountable for blocked content. Until now, both parties haven’t managed to agree on the payment of fees for the clips. How big the gap between YouTube and the GEMA is in those negotiations is pure speculation.
Luckily, YouTube Unblocker is available and free of charge for all users of Google Chrome. Installing the add-on only takes a couple of minutes and is dead easy. After installation, everything runs automatically and most of the music videos, which were blocked before, can be watched again. Foreign clips etc. are available in usual video quality and without long delays in loading time- because our Chrome add-on starts the proxy service only when selecting a blocked video.
