Washington: A new Chrome browser extension will block any mention of Star Wars spoilers in any webpage that's about to load.

A long time ago in what must to Millennials seem like a galaxy far, far away, movie spoilers weren't a problem, even with a cinematic event the size of a new Star Wars film.

However, as the seventh official Star Wars instalment fast approaches, nothing could be further from the truth.

The internet is already awash with spoilers and plot leaks that could well ruin the movie going experience.

Fortunately The Star Wars Spoiler Blocker is ready to protect you. It scans any page about to load in the browser window for any mention of key words or phrases relating to the sci-fi series and will blur out or post a warning if it detects anything as well as the option to proceed anyway.
