Features & Capabilities

If your home internet package includes a monthly data limit or you use 3G/4G internet on-the-go or at work, data usage is always an issue. Often avoiding watching large videos online helps to solve the problem, but much of the time when you browse the internet, the pages you visit will have visual and audio content that are automatically downloaded and shown to you, even if you don't want to see them.

This app is primarily for those users who want to keep their data footprint small when they browse the web, with the option of turning off images, video, or other multi-media features that your browser will go ahead and grab without your consent.

Just install and click the button at the top of your web browser to let it know what you don't want to download.

Is DataShield Media Blocker 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.

DataShield Media Blocker requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

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.
