whenever i study i go to a new tab and can't focus and i was happy for finding this

I liked this extension in theory, but there needs to be a way to turn the extension off. It seems like it wasn't really tested - once you install it, the only way to turn it off is to uninstall. While I want to be able to lock my tabs and focus, I also like the ability to close Chrome and re-open it, which this extension does not allow.

Was this even tested? Added to Chrome to prevent sites from opening pop-ups in new tabs. Following a reboot, this extension closed Chrome every time I opened it. It took a dozen attempts for me to get the extension disabled before it closed Chrome again. Thanks for the effort but maybe run the extension through a bit more QA before publishing.
