2021-09-SEPTEMBER-22-WEDNESDAY Works so well EVERY website becomes a blank white page like it's blocking EVERYTHING! In this case might as well just disconnect from the internet and surf the invisible web in your mind. Can't use let alone even read a single thing from ANY website I've come across (Google Docs, Sheets, also fail to function) ShyteAway - GDPR consent & popup blocker Offered by: michaeljtbrooks Version 0.3.1 Updated October 3, 2020 Size 193KiB Language English (UK) Developer Contact the developer 40 Cobholm Place Cambridge CB4 2UN United Kingdom https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/shyteaway-gdpr-consent-po/mgkagalippgjdbfbocknlcbmbopeipib

Needs a site whitelist so that it doesn't impede functionality on certain websites while still blocking all others.
