I'm trying to take a look at a scamming website, but it's using the debugger spamming to make reverse engineering difficult. Is there a way to just disable the debugger keyword? I don't really like to give the websites control over whatever I want to view.

Try the icon next to the cog, right hand, middle of the screen. It should disable all breakpoints

That icon did skip over the debugger keyword, but it didn't solve my issue because it still prevented me from viewing that website's source. Now the websites just becomes super laggy. I'm assuming that there's a forever loop that does nothing running in the background now that the debugger keyword constantly gets skipped over.

Can there be a solution where I can replace debugger to something that can cause the thread to sleep for like half a second?

oh that forever loop caused my browser to crash
