Can someone explain why all the downvotes? I’ve always been of the opinion that the more plugins you have, the more identifiable you are, so if that is the reason for the downvotes, I’d understand.
Edit: It seems the extension requires access to all websites, which allows it to monitor and modify data from any visited site
I think there might be a bit of misunderstanding about what those permissions mean. The extensions just need to be able to “see” the contents of a web page in order to be able to hide ads, change font & background colors, edit URLs, or redirect resource requests. There is no other way for them to perform those functions unless they have permission to read the original data presented by websites you visit.

Point taken, I like the idea of the plugin but was just looking at the permissions and surmising that it was the reason for the downvotes.
