Extension summary

Tired of web pages cluttered with dubious celebrities and pundits who have truly jumped the shark? Kim Kardashian? Kanye West? Donald Trump? Russell Brand? Justin Bieber? The Duggars?

Use Black List Pro to create a black list of celebrities and other keyword topics that describe stories you no longer wish to see.

On every web page Black List Pro quietly and magically expunges all stories that match your list, leaving the rest of the page alone. The number of stories removed on each page is displayed on the Black List Pro icon located to the right of the Omnibar (search bar).

Blacklist Pro works in all languages.

What a joy - I can finally go a day without seeing anything "Kardashian." I didn't think it would be possible in my lifetime - thank you!

Works really well to filter out content, but it only accepts a certain amount of blacklisted phrases before it just stops accepting any more input without warning about a maximum amount, so it's useful but limited. The input bar for new entries is also at the bottom of the list of current entries, so once you start adding to it you start needing to scroll down more and more. If the input bar were moved up and the issue with the limit of entries was fixed, it'd be perfect and I'd honestly recommend it to anyone I know who wants to declutter their internet experience. If it took paying a modest amount to get a version with those improvements, I'd be more than happy to.
