- Se valoró con 1 de 5por sonicbigboom, hace una horaShould be a great extension, but guess we need "premium" features now. Are you kidding me? All this is supposed to do is simulate a fucking dislike bar and button.
You know, I didn't feel the need to mention this before, but this extension also doesn't allow you to see dislikes for videos where the user "disabled" dislikes? Again, are you kidding me? The dislikes are not handled by Youtube, it is by the user base of this extension. Who cares what the creator enabled/disabled! - Se valoró con 1 de 5por Usuario de Firefox 18013822, hace un díaNew update requires data collection. Uninstalling until this has been removed.

RYD hasn’t changed how it handles your data. What changed is how Mozilla labels these permissions - not what the extension does with your data.
Here’s the same problem discussed by Ajay, the author of SponsorBlock and DeArrow:
https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/the-new-data-transmission-permissions-seem-to-be-misleading-to-users/149410
The extension is actually recommended by Mozilla, so they do not consider it harmful or dangerous.
The extension only uses the data it needs to show dislikes and count votes.
Its site permissions cover YouTube and its own API at returnyoutubedislikeapi.com. RYD doesn’t read other websites, and these site permissions cannot be used to access them.
Here’s what those permissions mean:
Personally identifiable information - RYD’s randomly generated, anonymous user ID, used to count votes. This isn’t your Google or YouTube account.
Browsing activity - opening the next YouTube video, so the extension can send its video ID and fetch the new dislike count.
Website content - things like the visible like count, which helps calculate dislike estimates.
Website activity - clicking Like or Dislike.
Again, this is about YouTube activity. The extension isn’t watching everything you do across the internet - it simply can’t do that with these site permissions.
The new labels sound scary, but they don’t give the extension access to more websites.

Not for all - for youtube only. I.e. the site where it needs the data to function

The message about new features is shown only once during the lifetime of the extension, and it’s timed to appear after a browser restart - hopefully the least disruptive moment.
Handling YouTube-scale traffic and storing dozens of terabytes of like/dislike data on a school-lunch budget ain’t that easy. The funding from these features is what keeps RYD’s servers running.
And as for the permissions:

- Se valoró con 1 de 5por Morales_Dog, hace 3 díasPreviously collected ALL your browsing data, without clearly informing you.
The only reason they started informing you, is that firefox terms updated requiring clearer information about predatory data collection.
There is an opt-out deep down in the config, but since they had the gall to collect all that data without informing you previously, the credibility of that opt-out seems... less than stellar. - Se valoró con 1 de 5por King, hace 3 días

- Se valoró con 1 de 5por Usuario de Firefox 19553534, hace 6 díasI have disabled the extension after getting a popup reading "New required data collection: The developer says the extension will collect: personally identifying information, browsing activity, website content, website activity"
The developer has been responding to this by saying it's simply a matter of misleading descriptions because of updated FireFox policy: "Here’s the same problem discussed by Ajay, the author of SponsorBlock and DeArrow: (URL)"
The problem? Ajay's extensions SponsorBlock and DeArrow, both of which I have installed and updated to the latest version, only say they access data for specific domains, and listed are domains like dearrow.ajay.app or youtube.com or sponsor.ajay.app.
Why is it that the dev's shining example seems immune from this policy change? I don't buy it.
With how little communication is being done, I'm not ready to let the updated extension run on my computer, and you shouldn't be either.
