What the heck is this heavily obfuscated javascript at the bottom of amazon-ivs-worker.min.js? #62

At least for me, the unlock seems to work just fine without any of that so I am very dubious about what purpose this code serves.

Hi, https://github.com/besuper/TwitchNoSub/issues/57

I have completely cleared all caches and history of chrome and the first page I ever visited was a locked VOD and it loaded just fine even after I removed that entire code block from the file and reinstalled the extension without it. It might be a good idea to confirm that it's not necessary (probably because twitch loads a wasm version of the player from a different file) and remove this dubious monstrosity if it's really not needed.

It's because the extension load the amazon worker from the github and not from the code itself. So i can keep the worker updated without updating the extension. You can check it in background.js
