Secure & Private Browsing by Futureproof
Description from store

Protect your privacy online - Futureproof helps you stay safe by showing when a website can use your camera, microphone, exact location, or send you notifications — and lets you block that access instantly.

This way, you can avoid:

▸ Unwanted camera or microphone use
▸ Annoying or fake notifications
▸ Your location being shared without you knowing

Here’s how it works:

1) A simple alert shows up if any website you visit has access to sensitive information.
2) A small widget appears on the side of the site while you browse — showing you what access this website currently has.
3) You can change permissions with one click. Don’t want a site to use your microphone? Just click the widget and turn it off. It’s like turning off a light switch — simple and fast.

Now, whenever a site knows where you are, records you, or sends messages — you’re in charge.
No digging through confusing browser menus. Just calm, clean, and private browsing, your way.

It’s lightweight, intuitive, and reliably — highly recommended!

Unbelivable! Initially, this extension was intended for my mom, who always keeps her laptop camera closed. She was really afraid that someone might be watching her on the background. And yes, she WAS afraid, but is not anymore. Thanks to this extension, my mom is always aware of any permissions that any website has access to. This tool is so convenient and useful so I started using it too.

This extension shows exactly when a site uses your camera, mic, or location — and lets you block it instantly. No more digging through browser settings. Clean, simple, and super useful!

Got it for my parents. No more “what does this notification mean, what do I do?” texts. Super helpful. Fixed a weekly headache.

I’ve always been a bit afraid that someone might be watching or listening through the internet. These days, you never really know what websites are doing. I used to just turn off the camera, microphone, and those pop-up things on every site — just in case. But then, when I actually needed them, I couldn’t remember how to turn them back on. Always clicking around in the wrong settings. My son installed this thing called Futureproof, and it’s been really helpful. Now, when I open a website, a little box shows up on the side, and it tells me what the site can use — like camera, microphone, or those notification pop-ups. If something’s on and I don’t want it, I just click and it turns off. No need to go into any confusing menus. It’s just easier now. I don’t understand everything, but at least I can see what’s going on and fix it if I don’t like it.

It’s fast, easy to use, and I finally know when my camera is on... no more awkward paranoia staring at the webcam. Highly recommend for anyone who values digital privacy.

I tried to figure out how to manage browser permissions, but it was so buried and confusing that I gave up. It just felt impossible to keep track of what sites had access to what. Then I found this extension, and everything changed. I finally feel in control. It saves me time, shows exactly when a site tries to use something sensitive, and makes managing everything effortless. For the first time in a while, I can browse with a clear head and real peace of mind. It’s one of the most useful tools I’ve added to my browser!

Didn’t expect to like this as much as I do. It just pops up when a site tries to access your cam or mic and lets you block it right away. Clean, simple, does what it says. Solid privacy add-on if you care about that stuff

I like it! So simple and easy to use. I feel like my privacy is finally protected

I'm 56 years old and not very tech-savvy, but my granddaughter told me about this extension and helped me install it. I'm so glad she did! It showed me which websites had unnecessary permissions and helped me take them away. I didn’t even know some websites could still see my information! It also warned me about potential data leaks, which made me feel much safer using the internet.

We weren’t too sure about it at first, but honestly, it’s grown on us. Now Valery and I use it pretty much every day. Makes us feel a lot safer online — especially with all those weird links out there. It’s nice having something that helps keep the shady stuff away. Gives us peace of mind, you know?
Dmytro Kovalov
It's surprisingly convenient and practical — it doesn't disrupt my web browsing and allows me to enable or disable permissions whenever I like.
