Safe History Extension

Tired of forgetting to switch to incognito, delete specific results from your history or have someone checking your history who gets suspicious when it seems to be recently cleared? Those times are over, Safe History is here to help.

Safe History works by automatically scanning the web pages you visit and looking for anything that might get you in trouble (porn, NSFW, nudity, profanity, etc.). If something is found the page is automatically flagged, deleted from your browsing history and the browser icon will color itself to notify you your history is in good hands. Everything else is simply ignored and kept in your history like normal.

Safe History features:
- Automatic deletion of adult or Not Safe For Work (NSFW) sites history entries right when you view them
- Maintains a realistic and clean search history
- No user input needed
- Keeps all history deemed \"safe\" for all eyes

If a site manages to slip past the filter please report it.

James Utting (ID: 0000001cd3e097a9) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 07/11/2017 This extension is NOT removing Adult Content websites from the "Recently Closed" section of Chrome browser. For full privacy protection it absolutely 100% essential that those entries get removed as well.
