User Reviews

Users appreciate the add-on's ability to sync across devices and block websites effectively when functioning properly. However, many express frustration that it requires a separate desktop app and an active subscription, making it less convenient. Several reviews mention that the Firefox extension does not reliably detect active sessions or block sites as intended, and some find it too easy to disable. Additionally, the subscription model and pricing details are not clearly communicated upfront, leading to user dissatisfaction.

Pros

Syncs well across devices and accounts.
Effectively blocks websites when working properly.
Integrates with a desktop app to provide comprehensive blocking capabilities.

Cons

Requires downloading a desktop app and having it running for the extension to work, which is inconvenient for some users.
Needs a user account and subscription payment, which users find restrictive and annoying.
The Firefox extension has issues such as not detecting active sessions reliably and sometimes displaying a green screen or failing to block properly.
Too easy to uninstall or disable the extension to bypass blocks.
Lack of clarity about pricing and subscription requirements upfront is frustrating to users.

Recent reviews

Need this to be able to engage with the world. I don't super understand needing the app downloaded + the extension - but it works so I'm not complaining

Note: Review of the extension, not the service. It always worked fine on chrome, but on firefox it refuses to detect an active session. So nothing is blocked.

Here's the deal. The people rating this one star don't understand what this is for. This is intended as an extension of their downloadable software, not as a stand-alone browser extension. Stand-alone extensions already exist -- and work well (see leech blocker). Would it be nice if their product didn't rely on an extension? Yes. Is it inconvenient? No.

Is Freedom - Website 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.

Freedom - Website Blocker requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

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.

Freedom - Website Blocker has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
