How to interpret this data
Specific vs. General: Specific blockers manage the database for you. General blockers require you to input the URLs or categories you wish to block, but offer more flexibility for other uses (like blocking social media).
Customization: Tools with low customization are deliberately inflexible to prevent the user from simply turning them off during vulnerable moments. Tools with high customization require the user to configure strict settings themselves.
