CORS Unblock Chrome Extension: No More CORS Errors

CORS Unblock is a Chrome extension designed to ease browsing by bypassing CORS-related errors. The extension alters the 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' and 'Access-Control-Allow-Methods' headers, ensuring seamless web requests. It includes additional features such as支 removing CSP-related headers, overwriting returned 4xx status code, and permitting cross-origin frame embedding among others. CORS Unblock is user-friendly with an option to modify headers according to your need.
