BlockSite: A Firefox add-on that prevents users from accessing distracting or irrelevant websites. The software is an efficient tool for maintaining focus and increasing productivity by blocking URLs, webpages, and search results that can distract from the task at hand.
Upon encountering a blocked site, you will be directed to a block page where you can choose to go back, proceed anyway, search for a keyword, or go to a suggested alternative website. The toolbar is also useful in fighting typosquatting, maintaining a list of blocked domains that have been removed from search results.
What's more, the toolbar has a feature that remembers your decision to proceed with a blocked domain, temporarily unblocking it for the entire browser session. You can also report a blocked site as useful to add an exception to the blocked domains list.
The Duck Duck Go Toolbar also has preferences that allow you to add domains to block or specify domains to never block. You can also change the function key that auto-hides/shows the toolbar. Finally, there is a button for reporting useless websites that are not yet blocked, which helps the developers of the toolbar and The Parked Domains Project improve the blocking system.
Overall, the Duck Duck Go Toolbar is a must-have tool for those who want a cleaner browsing experience free from useless and malicious websites.
