Welcome to the first of only two issues of Unlocking the Power of Chrome this week. I have some obligations that are going to keep me from posting after Issue 28 for about a week.
No need to worry though, I will be back next week with more great extensions for you to try out.
If you have a Chrome extension you use every day and you think I should check it out, please leave me a comment.
If I highlight the extension you suggest, I will give you a shout-out, follow, resteem, and upvote on one of your recent posts.
Disconnect
The extension I am covering in this issue is called Disconnect. You can add it to your browser from the Chrome Webstore here.
The developer also has a webpage that you can accesss here.
As you surf the web, there are countless websites that track you. Disconnect allows you to see which sites are tracking you and it also gives you the ability to block those sites.
Disconnect claims that by giving you the ability to block the sites that are tracking you, you can increase the speed with which you browse by 44%.
Disconnect is open source and a great tool if privacy while browsing is of the utmost importance to you. Disconnect can also help you reduce data usage because it is blocking all of the tracking stuff that is loading in the background.
Give Disconnect a test drive and see if it is something that you might want to permanently add to your online toolbox!
