Chrome Blocker for Joomla Plugin

This PlugIn is based on the ChromeBlocker WordPress PlugIn from Elias Schwerdtfeger (http://www.tamagothi.de/). It Allows you to block Googles Chrome Browser. If you want to customise the output of the blockmassage, you can edit the "chromeblocker_message.php" file, which is located after installation on Joomla 1.0 in the directory "mambots/system/" and on Joomla 1.5 in the directory "plugins/system/chromeblocker", with your preferred text- or html-editor. If you will ask now, why this PlugIn was written, you can find enough information on the internet about Google, Data-Collecting, Privacy and so on and why we think, this piece of software named Chrome is a data collection engine Google calls a "Browser".

Fast and comfortable installation. And it works. Tested with browsershots.org cause I don't use chrome of course. It's your choice to use this extension. And it's your choice to use google.
For some amazing reason, with only 6 votes cast on this plugin, it current rates as 1 star. Any google fan-boys in the room? There are plenty of us site owners who want nothing to do with google's data collection activities and who do not want google chrome accessing their site(s). plugins should be rated on whether or not they accomplish their objective, not out of patronage to whoever you personally endorse. This plugin accomplishes its objective. 5/5.
