For individuals seeking to minimize their exposure to low-quality content online, the Content Farm Blocker Chrome Extension is a tool designed to block content farms. Content farms are websites that produce a high volume of articles with sensational headlines, often with dubious credibility. This extension is for those who want to avoid inadvertently supporting such sites by clicking on their links.

The Content Farm Blocker is a lightweight Chrome extension that intercepts and warns users when they attempt to access known content farm websites. It allows users to continue to the site if they choose, but will not block the same site again for 10 minutes. Users can also customize blacklists and whitelists according to their preferences.

Key Features

1. Blocks known content farm websites.
2. Allows users to proceed to a blocked site with a 10-minute cooldown period for the same site.
3. Customizable blacklists and whitelists.

How It Works

After installation, the extension does not display any icon but will trigger a warning page when a user attempts to access a content farm site. The warning page provides an option to continue to the site or return to the previous page.

Open Source and Transparency

The Content Farm Blocker is an open-source project hosted on GitHub, allowing users to view the list of blocked content farms and contribute to the list by submitting changes.
