Looks like you found it, but "sponsors" refers to sponsored segments that are part of the video itself.

Sponsorblock is amazing, as it lets you skip not only sponsored segments, but so much more: intros, self promotion, non essential parts of videos, and tons of other things.

Eh, I'm going to try to find a way to turn SponsorBlock off. It doesn't seem to work very well. Also, I do want to know what's in that part of the video, so that I can directly support creators I like.

You can turn SponsorBlock off right in the SmartTube options UI. Personally, I love SponsorBlock and it works remarkably well for me, especially considering the information is crowd-sourced.
