## Description

SafeSearch Enforcer is a Chrome extension designed to enforce the strictest SafeSearch mode across multiple search engines—including Google, Bing, Yahoo, Yandex, DuckDuckGo, Reddit, and Imgur. It ensures that search queries are processed in a safer mode even if manual settings are changed, restoring filters to the highest protection level automatically.

Unlike other content filtering tools or DNS/proxy solutions, SafeSearch Enforcer specifically confirms that search engines comply with strict SafeSearch settings. It also allows users to block sites through customizable block list rules, enhancing child protection and safer browsing experience. Ideal as a complement to child protection suites, this extension safeguards against NSFW content and maintains a secure, family-friendly internet environment.
