i.. HATE this extension. i know that "visiting or watching certain things isn't okay!!!", true, true.. BUT, it blocks random things that are completely fine! if you are a teacher, school administrator, ect, DON'T download this, its terrible. coming from a student who uses this (forced to use this) in their school by the way for like 6 years... though, there are some things you can do to shortly disable it. for windows, do ctrl + shift + esc. for chromeos (the thing with the search button i think) do search + esc. then just disable blocksi in that menu by finding the extension then right clicking and clicking the button that gets rid of it. this only disables it for 5 seconds so be quick

i hate it at school, but love it at home because i can block adult and malicious content and warn myself that a website consumes alot of bandwith. it blocks the stupidest things at school though, i hate it at school. thats why im not giving it 5 stars.
