Stop Mod Reposts is a Chrome extension designed to protect gamers and modders by detecting and warning users about websites that illegally repost game mods. These sites often redistribute mods without permission, claiming ownership and sometimes even spreading malware to unsuspecting users. The extension overlays alerts on known illegal mod sites, informing users of the risks to their devices and the infringement of mod developers' rights.

By relying on an updated database of illegal mod sites, Stop Mod Reposts helps the community avoid harmful downloads and supports legitimate mod creators by reducing unauthorized redistribution. It safeguards your computer from potential viruses found on these fraudulent sites while promoting awareness to stop copyright infringement in the gaming modding community.
