Description
Page Sandbox turns the page you're on into a falling-sand physics toy. Click the icon and the whole page, text, images and all, becomes sand that crumbles, piles up and flows. Bury a news site, dig through a wall of docs, or just watch Wikipedia collapse. It runs entirely in your browser: no account, no tracking, nothing leaves your device, and it only touches the tab you click it on. Press Esc and everything goes back exactly as it was. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/page-sandbox-%E2%80%93-falling-sa/pjibdkihliilnjbhdiafeddmplibaajn

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a content generation tool for Government yet.
