- Rated 5 out of 5by Prince Chandela, 7 years agoNice add-on works as intended on PC but on Android it's a hit or miss
- Rated 2 out of 5by frustrated, 7 years agoJust wanted to block Javascript on accounts.google.com and only that site. Instead extension defaulted to blocking all Javascripting on all websites.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 11640498, 7 years agoPolicy Control is exactly what I was looking for!
I wanted to do some safe blocking in my web-surfing (regarding security, privacy, performance issues).
So, I did my homework comparing lot of blocking add-ons (Ublock, Umatrix, NoScript etc). All of them are great tools! However, Policy Control was the "perfect size" for my user profile.
I found Policy Control very powerful, but more intuitive than other blockers. Much more easier to use it.
I am an average user, without technical knowledge. And Policy Control took me less than 10 minutes to learn how to use/configure it.
Also, Policy Control is lightweight when compared to other blockers.
I understand for example, that NoScript could be more detailed/granular.
But in my opinion, most of the users don't need such granular control. And worst, they don't have such know-how.
Policy Control for me has the perfect level of control, not too exaggerated but at the same time also not at all too generalist. It is the perfect friendly control balance, for a safer web-browsing without needing to be days messing with each web-page.
Even those who want a more detailed control, Policy Control has a log containing a list of each element in every page, where is possible to block/unblock.
Most important, I sent an email to the developer with my questions, and just in few hours he quickly replied me with the right answers.
Thank you! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12126517, 7 years ago
