What is Block Site?
This extension will block access to websites of your choosing. A master password controls all customization options, as well as access to any blocked site. It’s also possible to redirect navigation from one specific website to another.
Features:
- Block unwanted domains
- Prevent access to a range of websites using wildcard matching or regular expression matching
- Reverse mode allows access to only some hostnames and blocks access to all others
- Custom redirection; you can redirect a single blocked hostname to a new destination
- Display a custom message on blocked pages
- Time and date based blocking. Only block access to the websites at specified times and dates. This feature can be configured per hostname
- Protect data leakage. This extension prevents certain hostnames from gathering network activity from your computer, since blocking occurs before any network request is emitted to the server
- Auto-closes blocked tabs after a period of time
- Closes annoying pop-ups as soon as the opening request is received
- Pause and resume blocking from the right-click context menu of the toolbar button
- Supports overwriting configurations by managed storage
Comments and Reviews
Block domains based upon day and time. It's simple and lightweight, and has a password lock to avoid making edits. You can also set up a custom redirect link for blocked URLs.
All-in-all, it's a great anti-procrastination tool.
