It does what it's supposed to as far as blocking but it also does something that I HATE and can't find a way to disable. It suddenly blocks ALL links opening in new tabs, whether they're listed in a a filter or not. I have search results set to open in new background tabs. This now fails and instead this stupid extension opens a dialog to allow or block. THIS SUCKS. It's STUPID and it NEEDS TO GO AWAY. Whoever thought this was a good idea is a flipping MORON.

Update: Genius PRO We've added a new option to disable global settings. You can find this feature under Settings > Popup Filtering > Default Global Block (simply uncheck to disable). Additionally, we've set this feature to be disabled by default in our upcoming new version, which will be available within the next few days.

Used to work fine in the past, but recently added forced blocking of all links that open a new tab, and I cannot turn it off, it broke so many sites that it is not practical to use this extension anymore. I also found no way to report a bug, so I only can leave negative review. I can consider reinstalling the extension if they remove "popup" blocking or at least make it optional. Currently any link that opens a new tab counted as a "popup", so not just actual popups are blocked, but everythin... Show more

I guess it still works, but now im not able to make new tabs with 3rd mouse click, and i use that all the time so that's very unfortunate. Happened 10. dec. 2024

Currently it's alright. Majority of its functions aren't working as MV2 in chrome is deprecated. Hopefully, they figure out MV3 soon. Till then, it's not very efficient in blocking popups.

Due to the deprecation of MV2 in Chrome, we are working on a new MV3 extension. We need some time to fully roll out all services like we did with MV2
