Description from store
Penguin Blocker stops ads and trackers dead in their tracks. It's built to keep your browsing fast and clean without breaking websites or slowing things down.
**What It Actually Does:**
- Blocks video ads on YouTube, Twitch, and streaming sites
- Stops pop-ups before they annoy you
- Prevents trackers from following you around the web
- Filters out banner ads and sponsored content
- Works on social media, news sites, and basically everywhere
- Updates blocking rules in real-time as you browse
**Simple Domain Control:**
You get to decide which sites get the full blocking treatment and which ones don't. Click once to disable blocking on a specific website, or add sites to your whitelist permanently. The extension shows you exactly which domain you're on and lets you toggle protection instantly.
**See What's Being Blocked:**
Watch the counters go up as ads get stopped. You'll see how many ads and trackers were blocked today and your all-time total. The numbers update live, so you can actually see the extension working. Reset counters whenever you want or keep tracking forever.
**Blocking Options That Make Sense:**
- Stop third-party trackers automatically
- Block social media companies from spying on you
- Remove analytics scripts that collect your data
- Kill video advertisements before they start
- Turn on aggressive mode for maximum blocking
- Create custom rules for specific annoying elements
- Advanced pop-up blocking that actually works
- Cryptocurrency mining protection
**Your Data Stays Yours:**
Export your settings and statistics as backup files. Import them later or move everything to a new browser. Clear all data with one click if you want to start fresh. Export just your whitelist or everything together.
**Smart Interface:**
The popup shows you what's happening without being complicated. Green means blocking is active, red means it's off, yellow means the site is whitelisted. Notifications tell you when something gets blocked (you can turn these off). Four tabs organize everything logically.
**Built for Speed:**
Fast mode optimizes performance for slower computers. Memory optimization keeps RAM usage low. Background processing happens efficiently without interrupting your browsing. The whole thing runs lightweight compared to other ad blockers.
**How It Really Works:**
Uses Chrome's newest blocking technology (Declarative Net Request) for better performance and security. Rules update automatically based on what you choose. Settings sync between devices when you're logged into Chrome. Each tab gets independent blocking control. Built with Manifest V3 standards.
**Privacy First:**
Nothing gets collected or sent anywhere. All data stays on your computer. The extension blocks trackers instead of becoming one. No analytics, no phone-home behavior, no hidden data collection. Everything runs locally.
**Lots of Settings:**
Toggle individual features on and off. Settings stick between browser sessions. Comes set up well out of the box, but you can customize everything if you want. Advanced users can create complex blocking patterns. Regular users just install and go.
**Advanced Stuff:**
Build custom blocking rules with URL patterns. Manage whitelists with import/export features. Advanced filtering supports regex patterns. Built-in malware and phishing protection. Content script blocking catches stubborn ads. Social media tracker prevention. Analytics script elimination.
**What's New in v2.2:**
Fixed the broken ad counter that was stuck at zero - now it properly tracks and displays blocked content in real-time. Improved contact links that actually work and take you to the right places. Better blocking detection through multiple monitoring methods. Faster counter updates every 5 seconds instead of 10. Enhanced error handling throughout the extension. Smoother animations and loading states.
Penguin Blocker works well for both casual users who just want ads gone and power users who want complete control. The statistics system shows you exactly what's being blocked, domain management lets you fine-tune everything per website, and the data export features mean you never lose your setup.
Perfect for people who want their ad blocker to actually work, show them what it's doing, and not slow down their computer while doing it.
