Change Log:

v1.5.0 - Pinterest now has sponsors and promotions. The Pin Buster has been updated accordingly.

v1.4.3 - Pinterest again changed their DOM structure in an attempt to negate extensions like this. Pin Buster has been adjusted accordingly.

v.1.4.2 - Pinterest changed their DOM structure again. Pin Buster has been adjusted accordingly.

v.1.4.1 - Altered new pin busting implementation since the one from 1.4.0 had unwanted side effects (sorry about that!).

User reviews

Works without major lag, much improved over the last promoted pins extension. However, it doesn't fully block the ads as the picture shows. All pictures and videos appear as black boxes- the ad's text and the brand account that posted it is still visible underneath.
