Banished

Ipse cogita.

Banished – The Extension Thats great at playing hide and seek with all those sneaky proxy's Built for school Chromebooks that think they're smarter than the filter. Banished is the extension that catches sneaky proxies, title-spoofing tabs What It Actually Does (The Useful Stuff) - Detects and nukes popular proxy toolkits that slip past standard filters (Epoxy SJ mode? Infamous dashboards? Yeah, we see you.) - Blocks title spoofing & tab cloaking (no more "IXL" tabs on random domains pretending to be educational, also great for blanket blocking all those game websites with 900 domains that all use the same tab title) - Admin-controlled URL blacklisting & whitelisting via Google Workspace managed storage (.json policy – because who has time for manual lists?) - Custom "Access Denied" block pages with school-policy reminders (and a scrollable fair-use wall-of-text that takes approximately 47 years to reach the bottom) - Console hunter for the loud proxy loaders that love to announce themselves - Clipboard slop & anti-AI copy protection (stops pasting Grok/ChatGPT walls of text on certain sites) - Configurable true/false flags via admin policy (copy protection? AI block? Console detection? Flip 'em on/off – still testing the full set, so don't blame me if one goes rogue) Recent Updates (Because We Touch Grass Occasionally) - Better admin .json syncing for blacklists, whitelists, and spoof titles (finally!) - Caught up with Epoxy/Infamous sneaky variants - Fixed a certain bypass with how chrome handles certain caching of pages - Fixed a million tiny console screams Disclaimer included for the lawyers: "Continuing to view or interact with this blocked page is entirely voluntary and at your own discretion. This is a standard school restriction. The colors, text, and formatting are just vibes. The school, IT staff, and the tired developer assume no liability for emotional damage, existential crises, or the sudden urge to touch grass that may result from staring at this page." Why Admins Love It - Catches stuff that makes GoGuardian/Lightspeed sigh and say "not again" - Lets you whitelist legit sites with simple wildcards ex:[ *.example.com/*, *example*, *://*.example* etc] Also runs the exempt functions before others with a return flag added if matched (no blocking Google Classroom... unless you really hate math) - Block pages are cozy but firm (no complaining about the font colors to the principals because your fav website got blocked) — students get the message without feeling personally attacked (mostly) Pro Tip: Definitely don't type 67 on the block page. (But if you do... enjoy your Google search for "67 ways to touch grass". You're welcome.) Perfect for school IT folks who are tired of proxy whack-a-mole every Monday. Install it, set your .json, and go back to drinking coffee instead of chasing proxies. (Yes, the true/false flags are in there — still testing the full suite. If something flips the wrong way, blame the hamsters running the policy sync.) v197 updated wildcard regex matching logic and fixed a bypass v198 added easter eggs for the crx to ai goblins v201 fixed admin .json sync with the main world and updated bypass measures for a certain website *** Wildcard logic for admins: *** example: *game* Result: Blocks any URL containing the word "game" (e.g., coolgames.com, mygame-site.org, educational-games.net). The Subdomain Match (*.) Input: *.notaproxy.com Result: Exempts/Blocks educational.notaproxy.com, ptb.notaproxy.com, and www.notaproxy.com, but ignores not-notaproxy.com. The Protocol Match (*://) Input: http://* Result: Targets all non-secure sites specifically. The Specific Path (*/path/*) Input: *unblocked.com/prox/* Result: Only triggers if the user visits the /prox/ directory of that specific site. Admin Rule of Thumb: If you want to keep it spicy, use the Double Star method: *keyword*. It is the most aggressive way to ensure that if a string appears anywhere in the URL, the extension acts on it. (just be ready to add some exempts to override legit websites if you do ;) ) What each .json flag means: extraBannedPatterns = blacklist blockedSpoofTitles = title spoof detection/blanket blocking: "proxy": "example.com" Any website with "proxy" in its tab title that is not "example.com" domain gets nuked exemptDomains = whitelist (all functions should have a return flag set so if its an exempt domain it stops the scripts from running on those domains) aiBlockedDomains = disable copy/paste from ai websites (not all sites will work because they're annoying with how they handle the clipboard) gameSlopPatterns = if their clipboard has these key words it'll sanitize their clipboard with a custom message (might be broken idk if I added the logic to take new values, I have a set of hardcoded values that should catch most of their copy pastas) slopClipboardReplacement = custom message if their clipboard gets sanitized (untested if new values actually change it from the hardcoded version) rest of the t/f flags are enabling or disabling functions, have not tested all of them but they ''should'' work Blank template for google admin .json config { "extraBannedPatterns": { "Value": [ "*.example", "example/*", "*example*" ] }, "blockedSpoofTitles": { "Value": { "example": "example.com" } }, "exemptDomains": { "Value": [ "example.com" ] }, "aiBlockedDomains": { "Value": [ "examplegpt.com" ] }, "gameSlopPatterns": { "Value": [ "<html>" ] }, "slopClipboardReplacement": { "Value": "Please do something productive instead" }, "enableExtraBannedPatterns": { "Value": true }, "enableTitleSpoofDetection": { "Value": true }, "enableProxyDetection": { "Value": true }, "enableConsoleDetection": { "Value": true }, "enableSlopClipboardReplacement": { "Value": true }, "antiAICopyEnabled": { "Value": true } }
