YouTube users can set up their blocklists to exclude certain sites and comment sections. YouTube blocklists are easy to access. To add a site to the blocklist, click &#8220;Add Sites to Block List.&#8221; This will allow you to block specific sites or domains from showing up in your YouTube search results. You can also choose whether to have the filter set for recurring or custom sessions.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Google_Chrome_extension\"><\/span>Google Chrome extension<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you are fed up with your child watching too many videos on YouTube, you can block the channel with the help of a Chrome extension. These extensions are designed to block a specific video on YouTube, as well as its recommendations and comments. If you do not want your child to view any videos from YouTube, you can set the limit to three per day. You can also set recurring sessions, so that you can monitor site activity.<\/p>\n<p>You can install a free extension by searching for &#8220;YouTube blocker&#8221; in the Chrome Web Store. Once installed, the extension will apply automatically to Chrome every time you open the browser. These extensions work best when YouTube is blocked on specific Chromebooks, but are generally useful for blocking all of YouTube. You can find a wide range of extensions in the Chrome Web Store. You can search for them by entering keywords such as &#8220;block YouTube&#8221; or &#8220;youtubeblocker.&#8221; Make sure to choose a trusted vendor with a high number of positive reviews and a recent update date. Regularly updated extensions are more secure than ones that aren&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ClearVPN_bypasses_geo-restrictions\"><\/span>ClearVPN bypasses geo-restrictions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re using Chrome as your primary browser, you&#8217;ve probably noticed that geo-blocking is a common problem. These restrictions limit your access to certain websites based on your location, such as the United States. But fortunately, you can bypass geo-blocking using VPN services. Here&#8217;s how. First, you need to be aware of what geo-blocking is and how it works. Basically, it&#8217;s the way that websites determine where you&#8217;re located in order to restrict content based on your location.<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;re connected to a VPN, your real IP address is hidden from websites, displaying a virtual one. This means that when you log in to Netflix, you&#8217;ll see a US IP address, and vice versa. This helps you circumvent geo-restrictions and access websites you otherwise wouldn&#8217;t be able to view. However, it&#8217;s important to note that many websites log IP addresses associated with VPNs. So, if you&#8217;re logged in to a VPN service and your IP address is listed, it could result in your account being blocked.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_YouTube_to_your_blocklist\"><\/span>Adding YouTube to your blocklist<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Adding YouTube to your blocklist is easy and allows you to control the number of visits you make per day. You can also use the YouTube blocklist to block specific channels, keywords, and phrases. This option will prevent you from seeing videos that are inappropriate for your taste and set recurring sessions. You can also set the blocklist to allow only one website. After creating a list, you can go to Settings &gt; Security and Privacy&gt; Blocklists and enable the YouTube blocklist.<\/p>\n<p>To add YouTube to your blocklist, go to the settings menu at the bottom of the screen. Select the MANAGE option, then toggle to the right. Next, enter the domain you want to block, then click Save. If you want to repeat this session, select Repeat. You can also set the time when you want to access YouTube. This way, you can easily set up the time and date of future sessions.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Adding_a_password_to_the_extension\"><\/span>Adding a password to the extension<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to lock down YouTube content, you may want to turn on Restricted Mode. Restricted mode helps block videos that are deemed to be inappropriate for children. You can turn it off, however. It may be installed by system administrators in public institutions, universities, or libraries. If so, you can add a password to the YouTube extension. If your child still wants to watch videos, use a password protect on your browser.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Block YouTube on Chrome If you&#8217;re wondering how to block YouTube on Chrome, there are several ways to go about it.
