2021-12-10 Dude FINALLY! someone fixes the horrible tendency of google news to show irrelevant stuff!
2021-10-13 Mark Varadi Not working. I wanted to block celeb names, after i done it, i checked if its working, and it just hides basic news that has nothing to do with my tags For example it bans the weather report, LOL! I scrolled down like 3 sections and there was the same ****y celeb news i wanted to ban, with the same exact names that i put in the tag options.

2020-05-13 hardheartedharbinger Tried signing out of google account several times, I still see things about Jenner, Kardashian, and Musk.
2020-04-17 Firefox user 12644750 My biggest frustration is that for this to work you have to log out of your Google Account and log back in for it to update. I don't understand why it needs to do this to work. When you do the log out and back in it works.
2020-04-03 Firefox user 13759642 Lately, I must log out of Google for it to work. Once logged out it does a great job.
2020-01-13 DJVance You have to go to Extensions and edit the preferences for this -- it does NOT show up in your browser. But it works! I was able to block all Sports news! YES! Sports suck!
2020-01-08 DK Really wish this could block whole sections... But anyway I found that if you use certain websites that cater to specific types of stories, it will catch more items unambiguously (ex: "sports" might block "e-Sports", but "espn" or "yahoo sports" would block the more traditional kinds). You can also block "more sports" for the section header.
