Features & Capabilities

Modern pages are loud. Thumbnails, autoplay video, animated ads, emoji in every headline. Cognitive Comfort blurs all of it so the text is what you see first, and shows you any piece of media the moment you ask.

Revealing works however you prefer: click a blurred image, hover over it, or hold Ctrl+Shift+A to peek at the whole page and let it blur again when you let go.

Every site can have its own rules. Trust a photography blog? Turn blurring off there and it stays off. Want it stricter on social media? Force it on for that domain only. There's also an optional mode that hides emoji.

Some things this extension will never do: it doesn't block or rewrite page content beyond the blur, it doesn't collect anything, and it never talks to a server. Your settings live in your browser's local storage and nowhere else. The code is open source: https://github.com/olegpulatov/cognitive-comfort

Shortcuts: Ctrl+Shift+U pauses, Ctrl+Shift+O toggles the current site, Ctrl+Shift+A peeks while held, Ctrl+Shift+E toggles blurring globally. On a Mac these use Control, not Command.

Is Cognitive Comfort 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.

Cognitive Comfort requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

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.

Cognitive Comfort is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
