À propos de cette extension
Grandma Guard helps protect families and less technical computer users from deceptive browser pages designed to create panic.

It watches for fake virus warnings, notification permission traps, fake CAPTCHA prompts, tech-support phone scams, suspicious downloads, forced browser updates, account-lock messages, and full-screen scare pages.

Grandma Guard analyzes visible page signals locally inside the browser. It looks for combinations of suspicious claims, pressure tactics, page behavior, and hostname characteristics. It also considers article structure, quotations, bylines, and official support websites to reduce false alarms.

When confidence is high, Grandma Guard replaces the suspicious page with a calm warning and provides a safe way to close the tab. A delayed one-time Continue option is available if a legitimate page is blocked. It applies only to the exact address and never permanently trusts the website.

Grandma Guard has no account, advertising, analytics, telemetry, remote configuration, or developer-operated server. Page content and browsing activity are not transmitted.
Commentaires du développeur
Known limitations

Grandma Guard is a browser safety aid, not an antivirus. It cannot guarantee that every scam will be detected, and legitimate pages may occasionally be blocked. A delayed one-time Continue option is available for false positives.

Grandma Guard cannot remove browser notifications that were allowed before the extension was installed. Existing notification permissions must be removed through Firefox settings.

Possible future direction
  • Expand detection for emerging fake advertisements, notification scams, fake CAPTCHA pages, malicious downloads, and other deceptive campaigns.
  • Consider optional server-assisted threat intelligence or diagnostic features in a future version.

These future features are not included in version 1.0.0. Any future server communication or data collection would be disclosed before release, documented in an updated privacy policy, and provided with appropriate user controls.
