About this extension
RageBlock helps you escape the 24/7 news outrage cycle while staying informed about what actually matters.

WHAT IT DOES
Blocks major mainstream news sites (CNN, Fox News, NYT, etc.) and social media platforms by default, while allowing investigative journalism sites like ProPublica and The Intercept to remain accessible.

WHY IT EXISTS
Mainstream news optimizes for clicks and profit through constant outrage and breaking news alerts. This creates anxiety without helping you stay meaningfully informed. RageBlock acknowledges these different incentive structures and lets you focus on deep investigative reporting instead.

The underlying philosophy: you're better off focusing on things you can actually change than getting worked up about stuff you can't impact.

KEY FEATURES
• Opinionated blocking - 60+ news sites and social platforms blocked by default
• Temporary bypasses - Need to check something? Get 5 minutes or bypass until midnight
• Custom lists - Add your own blocked or allowed sites
• Usage stats - See blocks and bypasses from the past week
• Reflection prompts - Gentle reminders if you're bypassing too often
• Infinite scroll protection - Overlay appears when your bypass expires on sites like Reddit
