Why switch
PixelShield vs Gblock
Gblock is the cheapest MV3 alternative but ships no analytics dashboard. PixelShield blocks 19K+ tracker domains on Pro, adds the Tracker Insights dashboard so you see who watches you most, and locks data exfiltration via connect-src:none.

Common questions
- Does this block the email itself?
- No. PixelShield blocks the tracking pixels embedded in the email so the sender does not learn that you opened it, where you are, or what device you used. The email content renders normally.
- How can a free extension block 500 trackers?
- The blocklist ships locally with the extension; there is no per-block server cost. Pro funds the curation work that keeps the list current and adds the Insights dashboard.
- What does the Tracker Insights dashboard show?
- A weekly view of which senders embed the most pixels, your privacy score over time, and a per-sender reputation summary. Useful when deciding which marketing lists to leave.
- How does the Aegis Pro Pack unlock PixelShield?
- Sign in to aegisfirma.com from any installed Aegis extension popup. The cookie-auth flow detects your active Pro Pack and unlocks Pro features instantly — no license key to copy or paste.
- Where is my PixelShield data stored?
- PixelShield stores everything in chrome.storage on your device. Your subscription record lives in our payment provider's account; we do not aggregate browsing or activity data.
- Can I cancel PixelShield Pro anytime?
- Yes — billing stops at the end of the current period. Pro features remain active until the period ends, then drop back to the free tier.
- Why should I trust an extension I just heard of?
- Aegis extensions never change ownership and never sell user data. We publish security audit results and ship MV3-native code so Chrome itself enforces the permissions we claim.
