If you only add this bypass copyright feature for the extension in the drive only and not in the extension store, wouldn't it solve this?

@zeoint Even if I ignore the issue with Google, there's still the problem that the content on those pages is probably encrypted. (Most likely, that gibberish you see is probably the wanted content, just encrypted.) So, I'd need to figure out how to decrypt it. And to be honest, I just don't have the time (days or possibly weeks) or interest to do so.

However, if you can tell me how to decrypt it, I'll see what can be done.
