StopTheMadness stops websites from disabling keyboard shortcuts, context menu, open link in new tab, autocomplete, select/copy/paste
What's New in 10.1:
∙ Improvements to the "Show video controls" and "Stop video autoplay" website protections.
StopTheMadness stops web sites from making your browser harder to use. And it protects your privacy on the web!
Many web sites disable user interface features in your browser that you normally expect to work. StopTheMadness ensures that those features continue to work for you in Chrome:
∙ opening a link in a new tab
∙ keyboard shortcuts (command-key on Mac, control-key on Windows and Linux)
∙ opening contextual menus
∙ selecting, copying, cutting, and pasting of text
∙ drag and drop
∙ autocomplete of passwords, emails, etc.
∙ smooth scrolling
With StopTheMadness installed, those annoying web sites that deliberately make your life harder suddenly become easy to use again!
StopTheMadness also protects your privacy on the web:
∙ Stops hyperlink auditing by removing the anchor "ping" attribute on link clicks
∙ Stops tracking beacons (Navigator.sendBeacon) from firing
∙ Removes tracking tags such as utm_source, gclid, and fbclid from links
∙ Stops sites from using the Page Visibility API to know when a tab is visible on your screen
Bonus Features:
∙ Stop videos from autoplaying
∙ Force links to open in the current tab instead of a new tab by removing target="_blank"
∙ Stops sites from showing "Are you sure you want to leave this page?" alerts when you close a tab or window
∙ Hides animated squiggles on theoutline.com
