Developed by Fusion news site, one Chrome extension adds actual Donald Trump quotes to any mention of the billionaire’s name.
The extension consists of three levels of “Trump filtration” – mild, aggressive and vindictive – but Spectre says choosing the “mild” setting “should be good enough for most use cases”, The Hill reports. “Donald simply disappears from your view of every web page”, Spectre wrote on his website. Spectre, of Brooklyn, said the reaction he’s getting to the filter reflects the reaction many have to the Trump’s campaign antics. But at least it’s a lot easier to turn off a TV, and who knows?
Spectre claims that he created the add-on feature not to support a political party but “out of a profound sense of annoyance and patriotic duty”. Unfortunately, the filter can not block Trump from people’s television. With the Trump Filter they can.
This is not the only filter of its kind.
