Extension summary
This extension blocks all access to foxnews.com. Additionally, links to foxnews.com on all other sites are disabled and replaced with the text "[Fox News BLOCKED]".

- When attempting to navigate to foxnews.com, the request is blocked before navigation begins and you will see a "www.foxnews.com is blocked" error message instead.
- When visiting a website which contains links to foxnews.com, those links are replaced with a dummy link that reads "[Fox News BLOCKED]".
