Takes up 20+% of my CPU power and I have an I9-13900K. Locks up my PC whenever I try to add something to the whitelist. Fix this broken extension!!

A useful extension for wide web-browsing. Once you use it for a while you'll have all your regular sites whitelisted and prevents random popups and other garbage from executing anything. Yea it's very simple (basically just a switch) and has little to no filtering but it does the job. Also a great workaround for those ***hat sites that force you to turn ublock/adblock off or deny access.
