The allow/deny prompt should clearly state which domain attempts to register a SW. Example: I visit "website.com" which has an embedded youtube video on it. Both the website and youtube (via its iframe) attempt to register a SW, yet the extension only asks "allow or deny THIS worker?" -- I would like to block the youtube SW (which is a useless resource hog) but allow the website.com one. Thanks

Worked for me! (had an issue with a site whose service-worker was somehow outdated/not-updating, and this was the only thing that fixed the issue for me, so I could use the latest version of the site's/webapp's code)

Большое спасибо! Хоть так бороться с криворукими сайтописателями. ФФ загибается, а на Хром встроенной отключалки нет.
