Having all my keystrokes sent to Google is the main reason why I don't use Chrome. Can this app guard against it, ie only send my keystrokes to Google only whe

  Well, there is a browser setting to disable that feature. But in any case, the extension can block "behind-the-scene" requests if a user choose to: https://github.com/gorhill/httpswitchboard/wiki/Behind-the-scene-requests https://github.com/gorhill/httpswitchboard/wiki/Behind-the-s... By default all behind the scene requests are allowed (or else that would break auto-update and other extensions), but you can make it block everything (except of course for those net requests which are not routed through the chrome.webRequest API). It is quite useful to also see (and control) net requests made by other extensions.

  Have you tried using Chromium[1] instead? Once I got serious with ABP/KISS Privacy/Ghostery I figured it made sense to switch from Chrome to Chromium. And discovering Chromium-Updater the other day has plugged the only missing piece in the jigsaw, for me.
