Blurs everything on a page except the paragraph your cursor is hovering over. Forces deep reading.

Features & Capabilities

FocusBlind dims everything on the page except the paragraph your cursor is hovering over, forcing your brain to actually read instead of skim. Move your cursor to any paragraph and the rest of the page fades into darkness. Move to the next paragraph and it follows. No setup, no accounts, one click to activate. Features:

Works on any webpage — news articles, Wikipedia, research papers, blogs Darkness slider — control how dim the background gets Smooth transitions as you move between paragraphs Adjustable transition speed Your settings saved automatically between sessions Lightweight — zero impact on page performance

Is FocusBlind 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.

FocusBlind 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.

FocusBlind is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
