No such problems here, update the filters, maybe it solve the problem, Anyway, using Piped all of this crap is blocked.

How will the filters cut out or skip the part of the video where the host themselves promote a product in the video itself?

Sponsor blocks carry a signal encoded in the video, through the googlevideoAPI, to allow YouTube Premium users to skip them. This is intercepted by Piped and by extensions like SponsorBlock, while other front ends, like instances of Invidious, which are based on the googlevideoAPI, block ads, but cannot do so with sponsorblocks.

Enough.

Sponsor blocks carry a signal encoded in the video

No. "Users submit when a sponsor happens from the extension, and the extension automatically skips sponsors it knows about."

through the googlevideoAPI

No.

I'm not discussing with you any more.

It seems very good to me, you mean how the extension works and I talk about how the sponsor blocks are inserted in the video with a code, that the extension or Piped has in its base to intercept it.
