Description

The AI detection is powered by NSFWJS, a well-regarded open-source library, which allows ChadGuard to identify and block content based on its nature, not just its address. This intelligent blocking mechanism is particularly useful for users who want to avoid specific types of content that can lead to time wastage. Users have the ability to manually add any website to their personal blocklist, ensuring a tailored experience that aligns with their personal goals for online behavior.
To ensure comprehensive protection, users are reminded to activate ChadGuard in Incognito mode. This is a crucial step for users who frequently browse in private windows, as extensions typically do not run in Incognito by default. Instructions are provided on how to enable this functionality: right-click on the extension icon, navigate to 'Manage extensions,' select 'ChadGuard,' then 'Details,' and finally 'Allow in Incognito.'
The project is committed to transparency and community involvement, with its source code available on GitHub. This open-source approach allows for community contributions and audits, fostering trust and continuous improvement. ChadGuard is developed by La Guerre Pièce and is available on the Chrome Web Store, aiming to provide a practical solution for digital well-being and focus management.
