For Google Chrome users, that doesn’t have to be the case anymore. With one handy extension for Google’s browser, you can block sound from any site you want, and avoid hearing unwanted audio. The extension is called Silent Site Sound Blocker, and you can download it from Chrome’s Web Store for free. This extension serves as an audio firewall for Google Chrome, and gives users complete control over audio playback in the browser. It comes with a few modes and options, so you can choose the regime that fits you the best. Here’s what modes Silent Sound Blocker offers: By default, the extension allows playback only from whitelisted sites (the first mode), but you can easily change that. Whenever you open a site that tries to play audio content, a prompt asking you for permission to play the sound will pop up. From there you have an option to whitelist the site, play audio and reject it only once, or completely blacklist the site. You can also whitelist and blacklist sites manually. This prompt shows every time a site tries to play audio, as there’s no way to disable it. This, as well, can be annoying to some users, but it’s definitely better than hearing that guy who tries to show you how to make a million in one month. All in all, this is a very useful extension, if you don’t want to disable audio on each site manually. You can download it for free, from the Chrome Web Store. RELATED STORIES YOU NEED TO CHECK OUT:
