If the skip time is fixed I think sooner or later youtube will start realizing when the skip button is automated, so my suggestion is to have a random time for skipping defined as an interval after the button shows up (e.g. an interval [1-2] means skip no sooner than 1 second, and no later than 2 seconds); also, i think this random interval should be forced by the extension to be [0-1] (this is to prevent users from setting it to [0-0], in this way youtube will not be able to positively identify the automation)

youtube does recognize this extension, and will stop giving you skippable ads if you keep skipping the ads too fast.
