Description from store
Epilepsy Blocker is a simple chrome extension that analyzes animated GIFs while you are browsing the web and blocks the ones that may cause an epileptic seizure. Think of it as an AdBlocker but for dangerous flashing GIFs. It uses a specialized algorithm based on the work of leading scientists in photosensitive epilepsy, like Dr. Harding from Cambridge University and Professor Binnie from King's College London.
Latest reviews
- Jayy Meyerholt
- It doesn't work on videos or gifs containing flashing lights. If you are photosensitive or epileptic in anyway, don't use this until they fix it.

- If you have Epilepsy dont use this, it does absolutely nothing to stop dangerous gifs and doesn't "scan" 80% of them but when it does it said SAFE on a rapid flashing of colours gif, dont rely on this as its useless.
