Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in Chrome with the "remove member only videos" option enabled, then open the Videos tab of a YouTube channel that has Members Only Videos. Trace the extension's filtering for that page and verify that those videos no longer appear; the issue provides no file or test location, so identify the relevant entry point first.
