It's sad users are subjected to legalese and spyware has become the accepted norm among 'free and proprietary' services. If this were some random add-on developed by some nobody it would have been appropriately removed from mozilla services.
Protip: Firefox already has Google Safebrowsing for malware. All you really need is to block ads and malware domains with Ublock add-on and scan files with the virustotal website. If you still need this add-on, maybe you should reconsider your browsing habits.

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14957199, 2 years agokein aktueller Schutz vor Crypto-Scam und Pishing!
was nutzt das dann? Werbeblocker gibt es bereits genug.
keine Möglichkeit bösartige Seiten zu melden, wenn man nicht zahlender Nutzer ist ... Hilfe füreinander wohl nicht gewünscht? - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 17433267, 2 years ago

- Rated 2 out of 5by Firefox user 14002826, 2 years agoGives false ratings on Facebook, shows some legitimate (and very safe) pages as having a suspicious link - they are safe, and have been for several years!

- Rated 1 out of 5by Nwankama, 2 years agoHorrible! I might be better off with a virus. It blocks some sites even Norton itself rates as Safe. Worse, it doesn't give you an opportunity for an exception. I contacted Norton and they confirmed the site from a reputable organization in question was SAFE. Still this horrible extension kept saying it was DANGEROUS and blocking me from living my life. So, I have disabled it!
