Features & Capabilities

BlockItOut | Digital Noise Cancellation

Social media engineering is designed to interrupt your flow state. BlockItOut is a tool that strips away the addictive "sugar" (Shorts, Reels, Suggested Feeds) from Instagram and YouTube, leaving you with a functional tool rather than a time trap.

Key Features:

📸 Instagram (Quiet Mode)

Safe Feed: Automatically hides Sponsored posts and "Suggested for you."

Blur Mode: Blurs images by default (hover to reveal).

Metric Hiding: Removes like and follower counts.

Black Box Mode: Turns addictive posts into static black boxes.

▶️ YouTube (Search & Destroy)

Ad Accelerator: Automatically speeds up and skips ads.

Shorts Nuke: Removes the Shorts shelf and tab.

Theater Focus: Fades out sidebar and comments while watching.

Stop Autoplay: Forces the "Autoplay" toggle to stay OFF.

🧠 Reality Check

Session Monitor: Tracks scrolling time and provides gentle reminders to take a break.

Privacy First: Zero data collection. All processing happens locally on your machine.

Is BlockItOut Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

BlockItOut requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Critical Request access to the following domains: instagram.com, youtube.com, google.com, bing.com, duckduckgo.com, yahoo.com
  • High ******* ******* **** *** ****** ***** *** ***** ** ******* **** ********* ********* ** * *********** *****
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

BlockItOut may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
