@smeg You basically missread the article and it basically says, what I already mentioned and the extension is completly opensource I even checked the code myself. 🤦‍♂️

@smeg It seems like you miss the technical knowledge. Let me explain. Bad for security; this extension is so simply made there is basically nothing you could rly exploit and the only thing this extension is able to manage ur other extensions not more. Bad for privacy; it's not since not every extension can be fingerprinting, only extensions which modify or do things related to the site you access. Websites don't have by default access to the extensions you have installed.

@LiveLM I agree, I think more privacy extensions should be avaible for both, Chromium and Firefox.

@mintycactus Yea, but I wasn't talking about Nightly or Beta, I meant the stable version.

@sexypeach Okay, got it, ig.

@sexypeach Thank you very much! Just now wondering, handle WA this differently? Since Ig we all know this message which appears when the "keys" ig, changed

@sexypeach So when I understood it right (just skimmed the text), the encryption keys changes per message?

@NightAuthor Skip Redirect can do this, but it often cause also some kind of breakage, Brave has it inbuild so no need there and not sure if Firefox has in it's config some protection for this
