User Reviews

Users appreciate Easy Image Blocker for its simple approach to selectively blocking images and improving browsing comfort, especially through its whitelist feature. However, many report issues with persistent settings, unreliable whitelist performance, lack of blacklist functionality, and limited in-addon whitelist editing. UI clarity and developer support are also concerns, leading to inconsistent experiences and user frustration despite the addon's usefulness.

Pros

Easy to use interface and straightforward functionality to block or allow images per site.
Allows setting a whitelist to unblock images on selected sites.
Helps reduce unwanted or offensive images, improving user browsing experience.
Works independently per tab if configured properly.
Lightweight and serves the core purpose of image blocking effectively on many sites.

Cons

Whitelist editing is not user-friendly; requires export/import as it's not editable directly in the popup.
Settings or preferences (such as default load mode) often do not persist after closing and reopening Firefox.
Lack of blacklist functionality; only whitelist is supported, limiting flexibility.
Whitelist does not always work reliably; sometimes images remain blocked on whitelisted sites.
Occasional bugs cause blocking to fail or inconsistencies in image loading behavior.
Some UI labels and instructions are unclear or confusing, especially regarding controls like 'ctrl+click then modeup'.
Add-on development and support seem inactive; issues remain unresolved with poor transparency.

Is Easy Image 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.

Easy Image 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.
