hu Az ublock-origin után ez a második dolog, amit egyből telepítek az új böngészőmbe. Nagyon hasznos bővítmény, bár tény, hogy kell hozzá némi szakértelem.

en Quite the absolutely best security addon for Chrome, or Edge. Nothing is better. A full in-browser firewall.

It's very good but it also creates web problems that block pages. It's not user friendly.

Прекрасное расширение. Огромная благодарность создателям! Пойдет опытным пользователям. Работает лучше всех адблоков, юблоков и так далее. Поражает функциональность расширения и возможности гибкой настройки под каждый отдельный домен.

Works fine. I use it most for stopping any malicious script. Har använt umatrix länge nu. Främst för att stoppa ev elaka script från 3-parts-siter som kan vara infekterade. Sen går det mindre processorkraft om webläsaren inte måste köra en massa script hela tiden.

WOW! For years I've had to tolerate all the GARBAGE Fox News loads on its web pages. With this extension, I was able to eliminate all the parts I DON'T want to see. So no more ads. A lot less images. Just the story and the comments. That's it! The extension is a little complex at first, but once you get the hang of it, it's VERY cool. (And like most people, I didn't read the documentation - so if it was "complex", it could be mostly my own fault!) One thing I'd recommend is a "quick start" example. Put up a sample web page and walk users through how to filter out different parts. But bottom line - this does EXACTLY what I was hoping it would do. +++++

Humbly stating I provide super geek services, I red/blue team, audit and certify HIPAA/HITECH, PCI-DSS 3.2, and SOC II type2. I use three tracker/adblockers. Ublock origin, NoScript, and uMatrix. Ublock doesn't provide a clear interface for exactly what blocking is occurring in the background, while it does provide an interface to show you what sites were pinged, I frequently find I am required to disable it, before the functionality of a website works correctly. No Script is much more simple and fluid, I would recommend for the intermediate tech savvy, you can quickly trust a single tab, or you can "temp trust, always trust, or never trust" each website that the current one connects to such as ad servers and content delivery networks. If set the always temp trust the site you go to, and are willing to toggle a few permissions, you can lock in your choices and export/import/sync with browsers. Import and exports are not cross browser compatible, but are if using same framework (Chrome to MSEdge / EpicPrivacy / Adblock / (Opera / OperaGX are CHINESE OWNED) and Firefox to Firefox_Focus / Brave / TOR_Preconfigured / Waterfox). uMatrix has similar export features and is more fine grained and configurable per-site and domain. Offers ability to use the highest rate block list should you choose to, this is for the more technically savvy who seek fine grain control, all things considered, if you are only going to use one, this is the one I take the time to configure the way I like and it always puts the "ad site / bad sites blocked at the bottom. It also has a greater visibility into what is happening and a much greater fine grained control.

Learning curve is a bit steep, but it seems like amazing tool so far.
