Extension summary

CustomBlocker allows you to add "mute" functionality to any website with customized filter. For example, you can....

  • Block tweets with specific hashtags, URL or keywords on Twitter
  • Hide tweets posted by specific apps on Twitter
  • Mute reviews written by specific users on Amazon or other shopping sites
  • Block comments which contain unpleasant or offensive words or tags on Facebook
  • Remove results of specific domains from Google search results
  • Filter videos by titles on YouTube
  • Make ads invisible even if they are displayed in styles of "normal" posts

Filters consist of keywords, URLs (wildcards and regular expressions are available) and CSS selectors or XPaths to specify elements to block, so you can create custom filters for all of your favorite websites.

CustomBlocker doesn't require special knowledge of CSS of XPath. It automatically analyzes structures of websites and suggest suitable selectors! You can create rules instantly by right-clicking elements on websites.

嫌いな人物名やムカつく単語などをNGワードに設定しておけば、NGワードを含む文章があった場合に消し去ることができて快適。最近は注目を浴びたいためにムカつく情報を発信する炎上狙いの人間が多すぎるため、穏やかにネットしたいなら必須の拡張機能。 一瞬表示されてしまう感じだが、表示されてから消すという単純な仕組みだからか汎用性は高い。この拡張機能のお陰で、以前よりもだいぶ穏やかな精神状態でネットと向き合うことができている。 これとゴシップサイトブロッカーとアドブロックを入れれば、大抵のネット上のノイズは消し去れると思う。
