they are largely a scam altough extension does what it promises

they are however secretly web scrapers for larger AI

Tuckner said in an email Wednesday that the most recent status of the affected extensions is:

- Of 45 known Chrome extensions, 12 are now inactive. Some of the extensions were removed for malware explicitly. Others have removed the library which was a scraper.
- Of 129 Edge extensions incorporating the scrape library, eight are now inactive.
- Of 71 affected Firefox extensions, two are now inactive.

Some of the inactive extensions were removed for malware explicitly.

Others have removed the library in more recent updates. A complete list of extensions found by Tuckner is here.

if you are a programmer, would be a smart move to create "universal code library" which programs made by other people connect to, because the library contains important mathematical programming routines

but in total secret, you are also scraping entire internet and its not even you but programs others are making, simply because they are all dependant on your ingenius library..

That's why you only use open source extension and violentmonkey scripts that you can verify the code on your own.

you're a Finnish anal whore. I want to import your library when writing gay code LGBT friendly code. Also, who needs predefined math functions if there are lambda.

It's mostly useless shit that women love but worth a look if you have something unusual installed.
