With this simple plugin you can restrict extra external requests made with internal WordPress WP_Http class.
Just put in the filter rules field what you wish to restrict. One url part or url regex per line.
By default, the plugin returns WP_Error answer for restricted requests. But you can put in response your custom response data.
