#8I'd be worried about installing these sorts of extensions in case someone decides to offer the developer a lucrative amount of money to buy it and then uses it for less-than-fun purposes. Not sure if they'd need additional permissions for it, but at least the current content script is ran against "https://*/\*" already.

#10Issue with this “benign” extension is that it will be using
“host_permissions”: “”
In its manifest means it can basically do anything on any webpage you visit, scrape data etc.
As an extension developer, no thanks. “Fun” pointless extensions like this that have no real utility, but funnily enough require broad permissions, are dangerous
