Blocked Search Extension

If blocking sites is not enough, unproductive searches must be blocked too.

Example, you often need to search stackoverflow on google while debugging a problem. Just add the word stackoverflow on allowed searches. If you don't include the word stackoverflow on your google search, , e.g., css id not matching, this Blocked Search extension will block the search's results, you might be googling funny cats or latest gadgets instinctively! This extension will block that unproductive search and will only allow searches that pertains to stackoverflow, or other words or phrases added to the extension. To allow your search, you must search, e.g., stackoverflow css id not matching.

Stay focused & improve productivity. Easily block any distracting and unproductive searches. Stop procrastination once and for all!

Pat MySecret (ID: 0000000f565a0b8a) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/05/2021 I haven't really put this thru the test, but if I were doing more intensive searches for school or work, I'd enable this again.
