If you\u2019ve ever been bothered by seeing the same thing on the internet over and over again, this browser extension might be able to help you out.<\/p>\n
TrumpKard is a browser extension that can block whatever you want – whether that\u2019s news about Donald Trump, Kim Kardashian or someone else altogether.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The idea was inspired by ad-blockers, says Robert Gold, the CEO of Wajam, whose subsidiary Lunaar Digital Experiences launched the browser extension.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe said, \u2018what else is annoying us when we get online?\u201d he says. \u201cOne of the thing that really bothers everybody is you just get a constant amount of, I think you could say, craziness.\u201d<\/p>\n
It\u2019s not just the content itself, he says, it\u2019s the repetition.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s just getting bombarded with the same things. If you\u2019re looking in the news, you\u2019re getting a look at Trump every single day about 10 times a day, if you\u2019re looking at entertainment, it\u2019s the same two or three people that have dominated the entertainment pages,\u201d he says. \u201cIt really isn\u2019t a great user experience because there\u2019s some things that everybody finds annoying.\u201d<\/p>\n
That\u2019s where TrumpKard comes in, says Gold. The goal is to \u201cgive people what they want to see and not get bombarded by the same monotonous content,\u201d he says. \u201cYou can block 30, 40, 50 different things, you pick and choose what you want to block.\u201d<\/p>\n
