Block Customer Support Chat Pop-Ups With This Browser Extension
Chrome and Firefox: Pop-ups are back, baby! They offer a 10% discount, they ask you to subscribe to newsletters (sorry), they open a chat window so the support team can help you spend your money. If these chat pop-ups scare you, try blocking them with the Hello, Goodbye extension.
Hello, Goodbye currently blocks chat pop-ups from 16 different chat providers. You can see a list of filters here if you need to export to a browser other than Chrome or Firefox.
If you want to hide all types of pop-ups, you will need an ad blocker like uBlock Origin . You can block almost everything on a website with uBlock using a picker that allows you to select the problematic part of the site and add it to your blacklist. It’s a very powerful tool – too powerful for some, so extensions like Hello, Goodbye are useful if you don’t want to completely destroy every popup message.
