Exziled is a browser extension that removes people you'd rather not read about. Add a name, and their headlines, articles, photos and video thumbnails get covered wherever you browse — one click to look anyway. Nicknames are found automatically. Face matching runs on your own machine. No account, no server, no analytics. Chrome and Firefox, 17 languages, free.
