What is Gossip Site Blocker?
'Gossip Site Blocker' is a powerful, customizable Chrome extension allowing users to protect themselves from negative online content. Control what you see by blocking URLs, using keywords and choosing between soft or hard blocking options. This tool ensures that the harmful sites are hidden instantly, preventing even a momentary exposure. It's effective for card type search results, news, and videos too. Minor layout disruption may occur due to the immediate site blocking, a quick window resize fixes this.

素晴らしいです。 検索結果に一瞬とも映らない。firefoxで使ってたアドオンブロックは一瞬映るのでストレスフリーです。これで画像が挟まれる学生プレゼンにも満たないゴミサイトは全て吹き飛ばします。 以下要望なのですがブロックしたいサイト上でも右上のアイコンをクリックしてURLを追加する、といったことができるとありがたいです。もし既にできる場合すみません。
