What's New in 19.1: • New feature: Press ⌘-c to copy links while hovering! Now you can copy a link without needing to open the contextual menu. • Many fixes for the Stop video autoplay and Show video controls website options, improving compatibility with full screen, picture-in-picture, and native video controls play button. • Fixed an incompatibility with shinseibank.com

StopTheMadness stops web sites from making your browser harder to use. And it protects your privacy on the web!

StopTheMadness is made by indie developer Jeff Johnson. If you need support, please email me at stopthemadness@underpassapp.com or read the support site at https://underpassapp.com/StopTheMadness/support-chrome.html

Many web sites disable user interface features in your browser that you normally expect to work. StopTheMadness ensures that those features continue to work for you in Chrome: ∙ opening a link in a new tab ∙ keyboard shortcuts (command-key on Mac, control-key on Windows and Linux) ∙ opening contextual menus ∙ selecting, copying, cutting, and pasting of text ∙ drag and drop ∙ autocomplete of passwords, emails, etc.

With StopTheMadness installed, those annoying web sites that deliberately make your life harder suddenly become easy to use again!

StopTheMadness also protects your privacy on the web: ∙ Stops hyperlink auditing by removing the anchor "ping" attribute on link clicks ∙ Stops tracking beacons (Navigator.sendBeacon) from firing ∙ Removes tracking parameters such as utm_source, gclid, and fbclid from links ∙ Stops sites from using the Page Visibility API to know when a tab is visible on your screen

Bonus Features: ∙ Force images to the front. Bypass the transparent overlay on sites such as Instagram that prevents you from dragging and opening the contextual menu on images. ∙ Stop videos from autoplaying ∙ Force links to open in the current tab instead of a new tab by removing target="_blank" ∙ Stops sites from showing "Are you sure you want to leave this page?" alerts when you close a tab or window ∙ Warns when you paste or type beyond the maximum length in a password field or other text field ∙ Stop scrolljacking ∙ Stop sites from using JavaScript to track the movement of your mouse pointer. This feature can also stop hover popups from appearing on Wikipedia and Twitter.

Extension safety

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.

StopTheMadness requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

High Injects scripts into web pages, which may alter or extract site contents, resulting in a substantial risk.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. 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 Chrome extension.

StopTheMadness may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
