Charles,

The uBlock Origin extension uses a set of filters to block all kinds of
pop-ups, trackers, ads, etc. It's pretty well-engineered to allow most
sites to function.

If necessary, you can disable it on a specific site (via a click on the uBO
icon in the toolbar or as an addition to a list of sites).

Be aware that imitators abound, so the "official site" is:

https://ublockorigin.com/

Good luck.

Seth
