Sobre esta extensión

This extension does exactly as the title says. It blocks (ie: redirects) the user off of websites with URLs containing "naughty" keywords. At the moment, the list of keywords cannot be modified without digging into the javascript files of the extension itself. Believe me, I tried :(

Although it can be used as a general purpose "safe-search", the purpose of this is to help those struggling with porn addiction by blocking certain urls entirely- and to prevent such addicts from finding alternative sources for their porn (such as porn games on Itch.io).
I do not claim the functionality is unique. Other extensions like "Block Site" are far more powerful and comprehensive. However, I found their syntax for blocking links to be, quite frankly, a right pain in the arse. MY method simply checks keywords against the url, and file paths, syntax, or formatting of these keywords is irrelevant.

Notas de prensa para 1.1

UPDATE 1.1:
There is now an options page available for the add-on! It allows users to add keywords they wish to be blocked in their URL.
I was very unsatisfied with how I had hard-coded the keywords in the previous version, but now users can add whatever words they like to their own list. The list is saved via the browser storage, and a list of the already saved keywords is available in the options page.

NOTE: If the list doesn't update after pressing the "add" button, try again and / or wait a few moments. You should see the list change within a few seconds.

I will deal with how ugly this extension is in a future update.
