About Enable User Select

The Enable User Select Chrome extension allows you to easily bypass text selection restrictions on web pages. It forces text selection properties to be enabled on all elements, letting you select and copy text freely even on sites that block it. You can conveniently turn the extension on or off with a simple toggle, and use its aggressive mode to unblock stubborn sites that use JavaScript to disable text selection.
