Hello. It tries to block the website from changing speed by tinkering with the playbackRate property. However, it's impossible to prevent detection if the website is serious about it. To detect speed, websites can benchmark two points in time and check the video progression during that period.

For example, if the website sees that 1 minute ago the video was at 33:05, and now it's on 35:05, and there was no pauses or interruptions in between, they can determine the video was playing in 2x speed.
