- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch MagmaMaineCoon, ien moanne lynPulled a bait-and-switch from being open-source to being a closed-source "enterprise" subscription product.
I wouldn't say it's necessarily spyware like the other reviews are claiming; Firefox addon permissions are finicky. But advertising as open-source, getting a bunch of articles written about it, and then switching to closed source with paid options... it leaves a very bad taste in my mouth. It gained popularity as being community driven, like uBlock. Now it will likely die off. In any case, I'm no longer using it. It's a real shame, it had such great potential.Antwurd ûntwikkeler
21 dagen lyn pleatstIt's still 100% free: https://shop.knockoff.co You're simply looking at the wrong product. And it's very much alive and well with nearly 150,000 users every week (and growing!)
We have started offering a new product for businesses that helps them find people who are knocking off their products (which is what you likely saw and mistook for the browser extension). We're doing that because we're not running a charity. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 20125445, ien moanne lyn

- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch genericname, ien moanne lynI had high hopes for this addon when it first launched. The initial feature set was clean, effective, and looked genuinely promising. Unfortunately, it has taken a severe turn for the worse.
Recent updates suggest the extension has turned into a total data grab, tracking and collecting far more user data than what is ever necessary for its core functionality. To make matters worse, the developer has now made the source repository private, eliminating any transparency regarding what code is actually running behind the scenes. - Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 20093096, 2 moannen lynSeemed like a good start until recent update wants permissions to "access your data for all sites". Figured I'd take a look at source code and this addon's development was moved to a private repo and what's left to the public already has GenAI fingerprints all over it. Uninstalling.
- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch asteen, 2 moannen lynWhat a great extension and awesome idea. However just like another reviewer I have a problem with it having to access browsing activity (history) and website content in the new update. This seems like spyware and contradictory to the description saying it's "private by design". The developer explains why it needs to read our browsing activity.

2 moannen lyn pleatstValid critique and I just realized the Firefox app description wasn't auto-updating on releases like I thought it was, so that's on me. I've updated the app description to clarify, and I've also updated our privacy policy with more detail about those additional permissions.

Ultimately Firefox gives very poor tools for control over these things so we're sort of left having to make wide-sweeping permissions requests.
Thanks again for the feedback! - Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 17616578, 2 moannen lynNow requires browser history in the latest update. This is now spyware. Uninstalled.

- Wurdearring: 3 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 20070079, 2 moannen lynConceptually a good idea, I can't find the advertised settings to make it work with etsy though? Also very US centred which is worth bearing in mind if you live anywhere else.

- Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch Quinnypig, 2 moannen lynThis shows a level of Customer Obsession that once upon a time Amazon themselves would have embraced. The fact that something like this has to exist is a stunning indictment of how far from its roots Amazon has come.
I'm glad this exists, but also sad that it has to. - Wurdearring: 5 fan 5troch joe28753, 2 moannen lynStill seems like early days, with occasional false positives or false negatives. But it’s very promising, the community can contribute feedback to improve it, and the developer is very responsive to feedback with lots of quick updates.
