Mind Control Firefox

Mind Control

Take control of your YouTube experience - remove shorts, non-subscribed channels, and more

Features & Capabilities

Take Complete Control of Your YouTube Experience

This is a content removal tool that permanently eliminates unwanted elements from your YouTube interface.

What Makes This Different:

Unlike extensions that simply hide content with CSS, this extension aggressively removes DOM elements from the page. Once removed, these elements are gone - you can't unhide them, they won't reappear, and YouTube can't bring them back during your session.

What Gets Permanently Removed:

YouTube Shorts - Completely eliminated from your feed, sidebar, and search results Non-Subscribed Channels - Only see content from channels you've chosen to follow Recommended Videos - Strip away algorithmic suggestions Homepage Feed - Start with a clean slate Trending & Explore Sections - Remove distracting discovery features Comments - No more discussions

Why Aggressive Removal?

This extension physically deletes unwanted elements from the webpage's structure, making the changes:

Permanent - No way to accidentally reveal hidden content Performance-friendly - Removed elements don't consume browser resources Distraction-proof - Nothing to click or expand by mistake Clean - The page structure is simplified, not just visually hidden

Perfect For:

Users who want a subscription-focused YouTube experience Anyone seeking to eliminate algorithmic recommendations People who find Shorts and suggested content distracting Those who want intentional, curated viewing only

Important: This extension is designed for users who want strict control. Removed content cannot be restored without disabling the extension.

Is Mind Control Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Mind Control requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Mind Control is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
