## Why Use Blocklist?

* **Sensitive Information:** If a website contains sensitive data, you may prefer Requestly not to modify it in any way.

* **Compatibility Issues:** In cases where Requestly disrupts the functionality of a website, you can use Blocklist to exclude the website. (If you encounter such issues, please log an issue on <a target="_blank" href="https://github.com/requestly/requestly/issues/new/choose">GitHub</a>, and the team will address it ASAP. 🤝)

  </Step>

  <Step title="Add Website/Domain">
    Input the website or domain you want to block. Adding a domain, such as `example.com`, will automatically block all its subdomains (e.g., `a.example.com`, `b.example.com`, and `c.b.example.com`).

<Info>
  When a website is added to the Blocklist, the Requestly icon in the browser toolbar changes its appearance to indicate that the extension is disabled for that site.
