Overview

😤 Frustrated by websites that block copying, text selection, or right-click?

Many websites disable basic browser features — preventing you from selecting text, copying content, or using the right-click menu. Whether you're a student researching papers, a developer checking documentation, or anyone who needs to copy text from the web — this is for you.

Copy Unlock removes these restrictions with a single click. No complicated settings, no unnecessary permissions.

🔹 CORE FEATURES

• One-Click Unlock — Click the toolbar icon to instantly remove all copy restrictions on the current page
• Smart Detection — Automatically detects and removes CSS blocks (user-select: none), JavaScript event interception (oncopy, oncontextmenu), and transparent overlay divs
• Auto-Remember Sites — Save frequently visited restricted sites to your whitelist for automatic unlocking (up to 3 sites free)

🔹 WHY COPY UNLOCK?

• 🔒 Privacy First — Only activates when YOU click. Uses activeTab permission (not "access all websites"). Zero data collection. Zero network requests. Everything stays on your device.
• ⚡ Lightweight — Under 30 KB. No external dependencies. No slowdown.
• 🛡️ Deep Unlock Technology — Goes beyond basic CSS overrides. Intercepts addEventListener-based copy blocking that other extensions miss.
• 🎯 Zero Side Effects — Carefully designed to NOT break normal website functionality (YouTube, Google Docs, etc.)
• 🌍 Multi-language — English and Traditional Chinese built-in

🔹 HOW IT WORKS

1. Visit a website with copy restrictions
2. Click the Copy Unlock icon in your toolbar
3. The icon turns green — text selection, copy, and right-click are restored
4. Click again to disable (reloads the page to restore original state)

Keyboard shortcut: Alt+C to toggle

🔹 FREE vs PRO

Free (forever):
• Unlimited one-click unlock on any site
• Icon status indicator
• Auto-remember up to 3 sites

Pro ($1.49/mo):
• Unlimited auto-remember sites
• Copy history & search
• Plain text copy mode (auto-strip formatting)
• Batch rules (regex/wildcard)

🔹 PRIVACY COMMITMENT

• No personal data collected — ever
• Zero external network requests — works completely offline
• No tracking, no analytics, no cookies
• All data stored locally using Chrome's storage API
• Minimal permissions: only activeTab + scripting + storage

🔹 TECHNICAL DETAILS

Copy Unlock uses a dual-layer injection strategy:
• MAIN world script: Intercepts EventTarget.prototype.addEventListener to filter blocking handlers, neutralizes Event.prototype.preventDefault for copy/contextmenu events
• ISOLATED world script: Clears inline event handlers (oncopy, oncontextmenu), removes transparent overlay divs, monitors DOM changes

This approach handles restrictions that simpler extensions cannot detect.
