postad för 26 minuter sedan"Personal information" - is the random user ID generated by extension to count your votes.
And if you don't like it - you can disable it in the settings. It's how extension worked since day 1 - Betygsatt 1 av 5av Firefox-användare 13755321, för en timme sedan
- Betygsatt 5 av 5av Firefox-användare 12203044, för en timme sedanI'm writing this for other reviewers in case they read it. Firefox did change their policies, they implemented more clarifying information options regarding permissions and data, which they require the developers to use, but these options are too broad and they kind of backfire, and despite what the developer of this addon claims, it's a failure on Firefox's side.
And no, this addon DOES NOT simply revert Youtube's change of removing the dislike counter. Nobody knows the exact number as it is inaccessible, hence the app requires data to calculate a close estimate based on user activity. Literally nobody can "just return Youtube dislikes".Utvecklarens svar
postad för 40 minuter sedanThanks for taking the time to share your perspective.
RYD hasn’t changed how it handles your data. What changed is Mozilla’s wording for these permissions - not what the extension does with your data.
The extension uses only 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 can sound scary, but they don’t give the extension access to more websites.
RYD is open source, so you can see how it works: https://github.com/Anarios/return-youtube-dislike - Betygsatt 1 av 5av 123, för en timme sedan
- Betygsatt 5 av 5av Firefox-användare 20158930, för 2 timmar sedan"requires personal information" is a false red flag, the dev has confirmed it, the project is still being handled by the original creator and isn't being used for datamining.... riiiight Dmitry?

So it's technically correct, but most of people imagine something different when they read it. Utvecklarens svar

The extension is actually recommended by Mozilla, so they do not consider it harmful or dangerous.

Premium features are there to cover cost of handling servers for 20 million people - Betygsatt 5 av 5av Alt_F4, för 5 timmar sedanHmm... I'm not sure about the recent permission changes, but I will choose to believe your words that it's because of Mozilla's new requirements. Leaving a 5 star to combat the review bombing.
That being said, it would be a good idea to make the reasons for the change more public and widespread. It is very easy to misunderstand your intentions.
EDIT: Upon deeper research, it seems the fault mainly lies in Modzilla and their abrupt new changes. I'm sorry this upsetting situation has happened to you.Utvecklarens svar
postad för 5 timmar sedanIt's not even "fault", it's just a bit of unfortunate choice of words. They don't tell people that I only access YouTube, and on YouTube - I only use a randomly generated UserId - to track votes.
From the notice it looks like now I'm collecting all the data on all the sites - Betygsatt 1 av 5av Firefox-användare 20158568, för 5 timmar sedanI don't care if Mozilla recommends it or if you super pinky promise not to collect more than is needed for the addon to function. The permission is far too broad for me to ever accept it.
EDIT: You can make whatever excuse you want. The permission is too broad. Piss off.Utvecklarens svar
postad för 4 timmar sedanIt's not a super pinky promise - it's stated in the extension permissions - it has access only to YouTube.
And as for the the rest - it's opensource, so anyone can check (and verify that you download the same code from the FF store) - Betygsatt 1 av 5av JayQ, för 6 timmar sedanNew update - 09/11/2026 -it now collects personal information - Uhhhhhh no thanks. Never worked for me anyways.

New update - it now collects personal information and spams advertising for a "premium" version.
Ruined extension.
Delete and report.
They are scamming us by using the Mozilla recommendation system.Utvecklarens svar

The problem is that most people imagine that I use their emails\names\etc. I do not.
And even this random user ID can be disabled in the settings. - Betygsatt 1 av 5av Firefox-användare 18650669, för 7 timmar sedan
