)Overview
Ad and tracker blocker that runs only on your device. Blocks ads, trackers and cookie banners. No account, no data collected.
QuietBrowse blocks ads, trackers and cookie banners without sending anything about your browsing to a server. There's no account, no analytics and no telemetry. Everything runs on your device. WHY PEOPLE USE IT • Cleaner pages: ads, pop-ups and cookie-consent banners are gone. • See who's watching: the popup lists every tracker on the page by name (Google Ads, Facebook Pixel, Hotjar and so on). • Nothing leaves your browser: settings, stats and learned trackers stay in Chrome's local storage and are deleted when you remove the extension. • Open source (GPL-3.0), so anyone can check what it does. • Scores 96/100 on adblock-tester.com. BLOCKING • EasyList and EasyPrivacy, the same community lists used by uBlock Origin, refreshed automatically every 24 hours. • 12,000+ network rules and 29,000+ cosmetic selectors that hide leftover ad boxes. • Tracker learning: spots third-party domains that follow you across sites and lets you review or auto-block them, all on-device. • CNAME uncloaking: catches trackers disguised as part of the site you're on. • Cookie-banner rejection that only touches consent pop-ups. • Tracking-parameter stripping (utm_*, fbclid, gclid and similar) before the page loads. • YouTube video ads removed before playback starts. • Optional extra lists (Fanboy Annoyance, Fanboy Social, EasyList Cookie, regional) and your own custom lists. AT A GLANCE • Toolbar badge counting blocked requests per tab. • A trust score for each site (Excellent / Good / Caution / Danger) based on tracker density, connection security and phishing signals. EXTRA SAFETY (best-effort, not antivirus) • Password shield: copying from a password field puts random text on the clipboard instead of your password. • Phishing warnings for lookalike domains (paypa1.com), brand names in subdomains, character spoofing, raw IP addresses and unencrypted login forms. • Download guard: cancels double-extension tricks like invoice.pdf.exe. File contents aren't scanned, so keep your antivirus running. YOU'RE IN CONTROL • Per-site modes: full protection, allow ads (trackers still blocked), or pause. • "Fix this site": one click pauses QuietBrowse on a site that breaks. • Element zapper: right-click anything to hide it for good. • Every feature can be switched on or off on its own.
