Quickly block a new domain / site /app while locked

planned

The same way the Cold-Turkey browser extension work. As, sometimes I can find myself browsing on a site I should NOT have access. A quick way to add this domain to a pre-existing rule. Either via a micro-app, either directly from the activity tab.

UBlacklist similar Search Functionality on Techlockdown

Not sure if at all possible, but there's a great chrome extension you probably know of called UBlacklist, that allows you to remove websites from browser search results. The only drawback of course being the extension can just be disabled.
If this feature could be used to block domains from search results linked back to content policies it'd be a lifesaver, rather than having to go back to Techlockdown every time, to add a domain you'd like to eliminate access to.
You'd also get the added benefit of password protection that UBlacklist doesn't offer. Bonus points if you could also block image / video results that browsers return.

Adding a browser extension/native app is planned, and would make it possible to achieve this. Until then, we'll add an "easy button" to the activity log page so that you can quickly block a domain without editing your content policy directly

Ben Gent, thank you.
