How It Works

VETO uses Firefox's declarativeNetRequest API to efficiently filter web requests before they're made, reducing resource usage and preventing unwanted connections entirely. The extension leverages GeoIP databases to determine the geographic location and network origin of requests, allowing for sophisticated filtering based on country or network provider.

• Privacy Protection: Block known tracking domains and services
• Security Enhancement: Block access to potentially malicious regions or networks
• Bandwidth Saving: Block resource-heavy content types like images or videos
• Focused Browsing: Create custom rules to block distracting websites
