Step-by-Step Setup Guide

Step 1: Install the Peace of Mind Chrome Extension

Install the Peace of Mind Filter extension on Chrome. Create your account with an email address and start your 7-day free trial. All 14 protection layers activate immediately: AI image scanning, 13M domain bloom filter, real-time text scanning, outgoing message blocking, and all social media controls.

Step 2: Download and Apply the Config Profile

Log in to your Peace of Mind dashboard and download the enterprise config profile for your platform:

  • Mac: Download the .mobileconfig file. Double-click it and approve it in System Preferences > Profiles. The profile takes effect immediately.
  • Windows: Download the .reg file. Right-click and select "Run as administrator." The registry policies take effect after restarting Chrome.

The config profile force-installs the Peace of Mind extension so it cannot be removed from Chrome's extension page. It also applies all the security policies described below.

Step 3: Follow the Lockdown Guide

The config profile automatically enforces these Chrome policies:

  • Extension force-installed — Cannot be removed from chrome://extensions.
  • DevTools completely disabled — No access to the browser's developer tools, which could be used to modify page content.
  • Incognito mode blocked — No incognito option appears in the Chrome menu.
  • Guest mode blocked — No guest browsing option available.
  • Other extensions blocked — Prevents installing other extensions that could interfere with filtering.

The lockdown guide also walks you through these additional steps:

  • Switch to a standard (non-admin) user account — Prevents modifying system files or removing the config profile.
  • Enable disk encryption — FileVault on Mac, BitLocker on Windows. Prevents accessing the filesystem from a boot drive.
  • Set a firmware/BIOS password — Prevents booting from external media to bypass the standard account restriction.

Step 4: Secure Admin Access

Have a trusted person set the admin account password, or store it in a time-locked vault. Without admin access, the config profile cannot be removed, the extension cannot be uninstalled, and the lockdown cannot be undone. This is the final step that closes every bypass vector.

Why Most Chrome Content Blockers Fail

Most Chrome content blocking extensions have three fatal weaknesses: they can be removed from chrome://extensions in seconds, they do not run in incognito mode, and DevTools can be used to disable their content scripts. These are not edge cases — they are the first three things someone tries when they want to bypass a filter.

Peace of Mind closes all three. The enterprise config profile makes the extension unremovable, disables incognito entirely, and blocks DevTools access. There is no standard mechanism to bypass these policies without admin access to the operating system — and the lockdown guide secures admin access with a password you do not hold.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I block explicit content on Chrome?

Install the Peace of Mind Filter extension, apply the enterprise config profile from your dashboard, and follow the lockdown guide. This creates a Chrome environment with 14 protection layers where the filter cannot be removed or bypassed.

Can Chrome extensions block explicit content effectively?

Most cannot — they are removed in seconds or bypassed via incognito. Peace of Mind uses an enterprise config profile that force-installs the extension, disables DevTools, and blocks incognito. It is the only Chrome extension with enterprise-grade tamper resistance.

Can Peace of Mind be removed from Chrome?

Not when the config profile is installed and the lockdown guide is followed. The extension is force-installed via enterprise policy. Removing it requires admin access to the operating system, which is secured with a password held by a trusted person.

Does Peace of Mind work in incognito mode?

Peace of Mind's config profile disables incognito mode entirely. There is no incognito option in the Chrome menu. Guest mode is also disabled.

What does the Chrome extension actually filter?

14 independent protection layers: 13M domain bloom filter, AI image scanning with InceptionV3, real-time text scanning with 200,000+ variants, outgoing message blocking, network traffic interception, social media controls, bypass tool blocking across 375+ domains, and tamper-resistant lockdowns.
