Oh man I've seen that happen before eg. a JSON parser

I feel the same. It's crazy what kind of extensions people just use, there is one called Snov or something, to add a pixel in emails... it's like dude, you gave this random company access to read your emails... idk.

which yeah... UBO but still that's open source at least. An extension you can view the source sure.



uBO is more exceptional than typical open source extensions. Its developers has shown themselves to be much more trustworthy and well-intentioned than Google.


I think, at some point, people should have the right to be stupid on their computers. What needs to change is holding them liable if their negligence affects others.
