Setup quick redirects suiting your needs or make Chrome autoclose tabs when you get redirected to an unwanted website.

Cryptojacking is the unauthorized use of someone else’s computer to mine cryptocurrency. Hackers do this by either getting the victim to click on a malicious link in an email that loads crypto mining code on the computer, or by infecting a website or online ad with javaScript code that auto-executes once loaded in the victim’s browser.ither way, the crypto mining code then works in the background as unsuspecting victims use their computers normally. The only sign they might notice is slower performance or lags in execution.But fear not, this extension will block infected websites scripts from executing in your computer. If you are inside a website doing such practice, extension icon's will change showing a blue exclamation mark. This will be recorded in Cryptojacking Log Tab.

Doesn't successfully close all tabs in the list. It's also troublesome to use cos doesn't close popup tabs automatically.

Отличное расширение, кто умеет пользоваться

Redirect example plus 'closetab': https://www.amazon.co.uk/?tag=snxgb5-21 ...still opens. And 'add star' from a previous review is equally useless.
