About this extension
Hetzblocker is a browser extension for Chrome, Chromium and Firefox. It blocks inflammatory media outlets, their publishers, and associated sites.

Features
  • Blocks all requests to inflammatory media and platforms — Axel Springer, De Telegraaf, and many more.
  • Saves you stress from the article — and its comments!
  • Indicates and disables links to blocked sites everywhere.
  • Handy for search result and source reference sections!

Thanks To
This extension is heavily inspired by autinerd’s hosts file, and revengeday’s and rleh’s work on browser extensions. Thanks guys!

If you’d like to join the party, please drop me a line on GitHub at https://github.com/marklindhout/hetzblocker/ or send me an email.
