CleanKinja Firefox

CleanKinja

Tired of the Deadspin in your Lifehacker? Too much Jezebel in your Kotaku? CleanKinja adds a degree of separation between the Gawker sister sites. Cross-posts and shared content from blogs other than the one currently being read are removed.

Features & Capabilities

CleanKinja allows you to enjoy the Gawker blogs you want to without being bothered by the uninteresting, inane, or flat-out offensive content of other Gawker sister sites. With this add-on, each main Gawker site is insulated from each other. Cross-posted content and story headlines from other Gawker blogs are removed from the blog feed. Enjoy the content you came for without unnecessarily raising your blood pressure.

Note: independent Kinja blogs are exempt from this filtering, but main site sub-blogs such as Sploid and Indefinitely Wild are not.

User Reviews

Remaking my review to add that they have a new (paywalled) site called Quartz that needs to be added to this. Prev Review Hasn't Changed: Still works, but I would like to be able to make it not remove the sidebar sister site articles and only have it get rid of the in-line sister site articles.

Is CleanKinja 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.

CleanKinja requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
  • High Injects scripts into web pages, which may alter or extract site contents, resulting in a substantial risk.
  • Medium ******* ****** ** *** ********* ******** *********** *********** ************ ************ ************* *************** ************* ************ ********** ***************** *********** ************ *************** ***************** ************* *************
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.

CleanKinja has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
