How it works

Privacy-first by design. The check happens on your device, not on our servers.

It downloads a compact, cryptographically signed list of flagged domains and verifies it before use. A tampered or older list is rejected.

Every site you visit is tested against that list locally. Around 99% of browsing matches nothing and never touches the network.

Only when a domain matches does it ask snyfer.com for that one site's verdict: trust score, category and why it is flagged.

Default

Click the toolbar icon to check the site you are on. Nothing runs in the background.

Opt-in

Flagged sites automatically show an in-page banner and a toolbar badge as you browse.

Opt-in

Flagged sites are replaced by a full-page warning before you can interact with them.

The blocklist is downloaded and every site is checked locally. About 99% of your browsing never leaves your device.

No sign-up, no analytics, no profiles. Only a matched site triggers a single lookup for that one domain.

The blocklist is cryptographically signed and verified before use. A tampered or rolled-back list is rejected.

The only server the extension ever talks to is snyfer.com. Nothing else.

Minimal by default. Anything that can see your pages is strictly opt-in.
