Prevent yourself from triggering Google Tag Manager on your own website.
This extension allows you to block internal traffic from triggering a connection to Google Tag Manager, hence allowing you to avoid corrupting the analytics and events data generated by your website.
See the GitHub page here: https://github.com/tommyrharper/gtm-disabler-chrome
In order to install this on your on your website you will need to:
Insert the following tag into your HTML header:
```HTML
<meta name="GTM-Blocker" content="disabled" />
```
Now you can use this piece of code wherever you connect to Google Tag Manager on the FE of your application using the following Logic:
```JavaScript
const GTMBlocker = document.querySelector('meta[name="GTM-Blocker"]');
const GTMBlockerEnabled = GTMBlocker.content === 'enabled'
if (GTMBlockerEnabled) // DO NOT CONNECT TO GOOGLE TAG MANAGER
else // CONNECT TO GOOGLE TAG MANAGER
```
Now when you visit your own webpage, with Google Tag Manager Blocker enabled on you, will no longer connect to GTM, and no false events will be triggered.
