From the README

YouTube Anti Translate Overview Source code of YouTube Anti Translate Chromium Extension created by zpix1, And YouTube Anti Translate - mv3 Firefox Extension mantained by namakeingo. All the people involved were annoyed by YouTube changing video titles to poorly user-translated versions. While it might be useful if you do not know the language, it quickly becomes annoying once you do. As there is no option provided by YouTube to disable it, we made this extension to retrieve original titles and change them back. As YouTube later got even more annoying with translated descriptions, audio (dubbing) and channel branding, the extension was expanded to untranslate that too.
