Overview

Product summary

Review the store description, core capabilities, and common use cases.

This extension requires permissions to inject a piece of code in all of the pages you visit. If that freaks you out, that's ok. Handing over those permissions freaks me out too.

You can choose to install this extension from source (it's very short) to make sure it's not doing anything malicious.

It's absolutely ridiculous that you need an extension to get back behaviour that's been in browsers for decades! It's the ones who are careless with their form data who should be using an extension to disable backspace, not the other way round!!! Of course no one ever polled the users to see which group is larger...

I wondered why it didn't work one day.... It took a while, but I googled why, and found this! Awesome, thank you! :-) I think, if it ain't broke, don't fix it!
