## Description

**Content Farm Terminator** is a powerful Chrome extension designed to enhance your web browsing experience by helping you avoid low-quality content farms. It detects and clearly marks hyperlinks targeting content farms on any webpage, so you can easily identify and skip them.

This extension doesn't just warn you — it actively blocks attempts to visit these sites, preventing accidental visits. For cases where you need to investigate, blocked pages can be viewed securely within a sandbox environment that strips ads and scripts, ensuring your safety. With customizable blacklists, whitelists, and greylist options, plus support for subscribing to web blacklists, users have full control over the filtering process. Quick blacklisting is available directly from the context menu on any page, hyperlink, or selected text, making it convenient to manage unwanted sites on the fly.

Content Farm Terminator brings smarter, safer, and cleaner browsing by putting you in control of the content you choose to see.
