Aslında çok iyi bir eklenti fakat son zamanlarda devtools'da network sekmeme baktığımda loopa girmiş görüyorum sürekli bir şeyler yapmaya çalışıyor, bu da sayfanın tamamen yüklenmesini engelliyor. Düzeltilirse iyi olur.

Previously I would have said this extension is a must have, but 12.1.1 has broken functionality on MOST webpages. The extension is blocking numerous scripts by default that it is then NOT showing to let the user to allow/disallow. Many of these hidden and blocked scripts are essential to webpage functionality, and make websites completely unusable unless the extension is completely disabled. The plugins own "Disable restrictions globally" function does NOT solve this problem; it will continue to break numerous essential scripts even when it is set to disable restrictions.

Attention! Bugs with google RECAPTCHA V2 - not possible to solve , incorrect showing. Есть проблемы с решением google RECAPTCHA на сайтах, где она установлена, неправильно отображается, невозможно ее решить. Раньше все работало. Как на ПК так и на смартфонах.
