Discreetly surf the web! Control exactly how you want web pages to look like.
Decreased Productivity (DP) creates a more "consistent" browsing experience (for you and others around you) by letting you control what you want to see ("stealth browsing" => text/page background colours, the cloaking of images, hiding page favicons, changing fonts, etc.). You can choose what style you want (e.g. green text on a black background) by going to the Options page (right-click on icon in address bar and click on "Options"). DP has tab-specific support and domain whitelisting/blacklisting!
Supports Arabic, German, English (US and British), Spanish, Tagalog, French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese (Brazilian and Portugal), Russian, Turkish, Vietnamese, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional)!

--- Wildcard Matching: *.domain.com matches anything.domain.com (but not domain.com (no subdomain))
--- Single Character Matching: ?.abc.com matches a.abc.com, b.abc.com, 2.abc.com, etc.
--- Note 1: the * and ? can be placed anywhere and/or combined (e.g. ab?.com, cat*.c?)

- the above update should also result in further improved performance

v0.46.55.1 - Friday, May 20, 2016
- further significant foundation code optimization, resulting in (probably noticeably) faster and more efficient logic and processing

- v0.46.54.2-4 - "Stickiness" feature now applies when a bookmark is opened in the background while viewing a currently cloaked tab
- v0.46.54.1 - fixed issue where DP icon was showing it was enabled even when it wasn't
- v0.46.54.1 - fixed situations where the default coffee cup DP icon would be shown despite a custom icon being selected (e.g. creating a new tab)

- improved whitelist/blacklist checks
- tab cloak data now includes window IDs for guaranteed tab-specific cloaking
- toggling Global Mode in Options is now enforced immediately (e.g. favicons and page titles) (thanks Vineet)
- "Stickiness" feature (cloaking new tabs opened from cloaked pages) now checks if the new tab's domain is whitelisted or not before cloaking
- eliminated various redundant lookups (e.g. whitelist/blacklist checks)

- auto-update hotkey toggle if stored in old format, fixing issue where the toggle doesn't work after recent updates
- fixed potential issue where DP icon won't appear in the address bar
- now the "Safely open in new tab" context menu item doesn't override your Cloaking Level (previously it was resetting it to SFW0)

- made Update page open in a background tab instead of the foreground (if "Show Update Popup" is enabled in the Options page)
v0.46.53.2 - Thursday, May 5, 2016
- v0.46.53.2 = tweaked Paranoid Mode to Cloak behaviour, fixed page favicon and page titles toggling, and hotkey changes now take effect immediately
- updated core DP cloaking functions so that DP Option setting changes and the Paranoid Hotkey toggle take effect immediately (without temporarily uncloaking and recloaking open tabs)
- optimized number of calls when cloaking a page (from 3 to 1)
- tweaked page favicon cloaking to be instant
- all DP cloaking identifiers now unique on every page load to avoid conflicts/being overwritten

v0.46.52.2 - Wednesday, May 4, 2016
- added new Paranoid Hotkey toggle (default: ALT+P) which toggles between Paranoid mode (all images/media hidden) and the Cloaking Level you chose. Like the cloaking toggle, you have full control over what the hotkeys are (the .1 in the version number v0.46.52.1 = a fix so that any change to the Paranoid Hotkey combo is actually saved; .2 = tweaked Paranoid behaviour)
- toolbar icon action now respects DP enabled state
- tweaked hotkey visual display and fixed potential issue
