Aggressive version - maximum blocking against emerging privacy threats. May (occasionally) disrupt legit sites or services.

Usage Notes
Choose between Lite and Xtra based on your needs, protection level, and tolerance for issues like false positives.
- Lite
For general users, beginners, families, or casual browsing where stability matters.
Low false positives: Accurate, non-disruptive blocking. - Xtra
Ideal for advanced users or privacy enthusiasts focused on maximum threat mitigation, even if it requires troubleshooting.
However, it carries a higher false positive rate. This is an inherent trade-off for its aggressive nature, and users can report issues for removals. Not for everyone!
