Latest reviews

• (2022-12-26) Aero Windwalker: It does not work if I were to load the target url in a video tag. It works for fetch and xhr.
• (2022-10-31) Owain Baber: The < default action > blocks referrers on pages you haven't configured which renders some completely unusable. It's impossible to login to Synology Photos web app with this extension active and sites like the Nextdoor app are completely broken with this active.
• (2022-08-09) Benedikt Buchert: Does not work for Javascript document.referrer changes. No intent from the developer to fix. So useless for me.
• (2022-01-27) Mike Robinson: This extension works in Chrome, but unfortunately not in Opera. Also, keep in mind that in order to get this extension to work on search engine results pages, you need to manually tick the "Allow access to search page results" in the extension details. This is turned off by default. Note to the dev, to get it to work in Opera, you need to do the following near the beginning of refererControl.js: (isChrome || isOpera) && 72 <= chromeVersion && optExtraInfoSpec.push("extraHeaders");
• (2022-01-27) Andrew Ronding: Works great, many thanks.
• (2021-12-29) Mark Henry: Doesn't work! I'm a developer and I tried removing the referer both in onBeforeSendHeaders() and onSendHeaders. Google chrome still adds it in the final request anyway. If you want to remove it you have to change the source code and build your own browser.
• (2021-11-30) Keithen Hamilton: There are no instructions!
• (2021-11-14) Cake Cake: Very nice tool
• (2021-05-27) __: Doesn't work
• (2020-11-13) Nihad: Worthless. Only changes HTTP referrer. You can still get the referrer through javascript.
• (2020-07-02) Derghi Arrinde: Does not work on latest Vivaldi. I am a power user, a programmer, I make my own extensions. I tested this extensively. I think I just lost my time with this :-(
• (2020-06-25) Alireza Mohamadi: Apparently it sends "referrer" instead of "Referrer" which makes github return 422. Of course this is stupid of github but makes your extension problematic.
• (2020-01-14) Shelly Liang: very confusing, a bunch of clueless buttons, don't know how to add settings
• (2019-08-31) Hadi Farnoud: it does not work. document.referrer is still the same. for anyone looking for an answer, you can do this manually: Object.defineProperty(document, "referrer", {get : function(){ return "http://kamva.ir"; }});
• (2019-05-22) 飞龙（Cirno）: work fine
• (2019-04-23) Trevor Powell: Does what it needs to do.
• (2019-02-26) Work like a charm
• (2018-11-30) Не удаляет &_openstat=(...) из ссылок с Яндекс.Маркета.
• (2018-09-25) Andrew WTF: Works nicely, straightforward UI, no nagging.
• (2018-09-06) Gomahamaya Support: I am really sorry for my last review your crome extension was good and was working fine . I gave bad rating because of page ruler extension then added search website and mofified my result . Thanks your work was good
• (2018-09-03) Deep Saurabh: Doesn't work on Chrome 68
• (2018-08-16) J J: It does nothing. Has no instructions. What's the point!
• (2018-07-26) Joshua Walton: Worked great for WSJ, but really needs more instructions.
• (2018-06-04) hedgehog ful: Don't use it much, but it works. I use it to read the FT normally (pages load as if via google). Used to work w/ NYT and some other US papers, but these days I have a userscript for them.
• (2018-04-18) [I'm a student in network security] This app does the job. Didn't used it extensively, but I used it to pass the level 4 of the Natas wargame by overthewire.
• (2018-03-24) Stay Puft: This extension does the job.
• (2018-03-15) 幻影显形: Options Page couldn't be completely displayed under Chrome 65.
• (2018-03-11) Patrick Wang: 超棒 簡單易用!!
• (2018-02-14) Witold Baryluk: The best Referer control extension there. Some colors and semantic of what 3rd party button does is tricky, but after reading and testing, it works.
• (2018-01-05) Craig White: Worked exactly how I needed it to
• (2017-12-26) Gordon Logan: 能用 不错
• (2017-10-13) Nils Kilden-Pedersen: Helped me solve a problem when using one of Google's services from localhost. But, just had it hang a bunch of sessions, all of which was immediately resolved when disabling this plugin. Not sure what's going on, if it's just buggy, or if it was trying to contact some site for reporting.
• (2017-06-07) Luca A.: Seems ok, but it will nice to have an on/off button directly in the browser bar to quickly change the status
• (2017-01-07) Raffaele Cotela: Sblocca le immagini che deve sbloccare, ma blocca quelle già sbloccate. Fa un casino e basta.
• (2016-12-29) Thomas Kail: It was awesome, thank you very much!!
• (2016-12-28) Michael David: Very hard to understand at first, no instructions really. But it does do some very special magic.
• (2016-11-29) Joseph Thompson: Causes persistent random "Aw Snap" errors in Chrome on OS X and failures to load web sites (and internal Chrome pages). Clicking the "Reload" button on the "Aw Snap" error page or simply reloading the page brings up the page -- really annoying and time-wasting. Didn't seem to do much to mask the use of an ad-blocker either, which was why I installed it.
