Disallow to register Service Workers

Description from store
This extension will prevent Service Workers to be registered.
You will be prompted to allow or block each individual SW, per domain.
As an example, visit: https://mdn.github.io/sw-test/
The choice will be remembered by the extension, and each individual setting can be cleared.
The project source code can be found at: https://github.com/clod81/block_service_workers

- (2023-02-08) Myster Jin: it's not working for me, for example this webpage www.olx.pl. Whenever you open a new tab from this site, there is service worker actived, but not only one! it does detected olx.pl service worker but it didn't detect other one wp.pl. and I only want to block this wp.pl service worker. it's somehow hide behind avoide detection Please help me out!
- (2022-08-16) Przemek D: The allow/deny prompt should clearly state which domain attempts to register a SW. Example: I visit "website.com" which has an embedded youtube video on it. Both the website and youtube (via its iframe) attempt to register a SW, yet the extension only asks "allow or deny THIS worker?" -- I would like to block the youtube SW (which is a useless resource hog) but allow the website.com one. Thanks
- (2022-07-26) Stephen Wicklund: Worked for me! (had an issue with a site whose service-worker was somehow outdated/not-updating, and this was the only thing that fixed the issue for me, so I could use the latest version of the site's/webapp's code)
- (2021-11-04) Роман Чернышов: Большое спасибо! Хоть так бороться с криворукими сайтописателями. ФФ загибается, а на Хром встроенной отключалки нет.
- (2021-03-24) Artemi Lebedev: Constantly asks
- (2019-12-24) Matt Blais: Nice idea, but I get WAY TOO MANY repeated prompts on sites I've already white-listed (GMail, etc). Please allow automatic acceptance for all requests from sites that have already been white-listed.
- (2019-11-18) Vincenzo Tilotta (tailot): Perfect thanks!
- (2019-11-14) MhMd 3eZZ: thanks you sir but there is a small adjustment here we want a global block without notification and a white list that is all thank you sir for this great work
- (2019-10-18) H: I was looking for blocking service workers and it helped me alot.
- (2019-06-08) Faheem Pervez: As someone who hates big G et al. trying to make browsers a vehicle for sh*tty "apps", this helps me a lot. However, it would be great if there was an option to simply block SWs without a confirmation prompt.
