I was wondering why is it sooo easy to enable it? Please help me... Is there a way to take it off of my tools? Thanks Samantha”

We have a quicker menu option to disable the add-on, because sometimes it's convenient to temporarily disable the add-on without having to restart the browser. The add-on isn't meant to stop users from accessing websites, it's only meant to inform them about the site's reputation. If a user is determined to go to a website despite its reputation, there's always a way to bypass the add-on.
thanks for your response
