Security Analysis
What This Extension Does
This extension claims to block ads on websites, including YouTube.
Data Exposure
The extension does not declare any permissions and does not appear to access user data beyond what is necessary for its stated purpose of ad blocking. No external domains or endpoints were detected in the code, meaning no data appears to be sent outside the browser.
Code Behavior Findings
No automated code flags were raised for this extension.
Transparency Indicators
The developer is not identified, and there is no Content Security Policy set. The extension has a large install base with 60 million users, but its version number is unknown, making it unclear if updates are recent or actively maintained.
Nothing in this scan suggests behavior beyond what is needed for blocking ads. However, the lack of a developer identifier and absence of a Content Security Policy mean that users should be cautious about installing extensions with limited transparency.
