Default Is there an ad-free YouTube clone for Windows like NewPipe is for Android?

This is the second time Adblock has come up, and yet, nobody has answered
the basic questions about Adblock yet.

Both John Doe and Mark Lloyd have implied that AdBlock does what New Pipe
does, which is *great* if it's actually true since New Pipe does a *lot* of
good things.

1. How does Adblock block all in-video (aka slipstream) ads?

Less critically...
2. How does Adblock download the video as a video?
3. How does Adblock extract the audio from the video?

Even less critically:
4. How does AdBlock play the video in *any* video player you want it to?
5. How does AdBlock search all YouTube videos without any web browser?
