Summary
When you click to localized Aliexpress URL like "https://ru.aliexpress.com/item_uri", site globally switches your language context to the language of that URL. Next, even if you go to the non-localized URL like "https://www.aliexpress.com/item_uri", you automatically redirected to the translated version. But click to "Global Site" button redirects you to the Aliexpress start page and you will loss opened item. This addon transparently changes localized anchors "https://ru.aliexpress.com/..." to the global version "https://www.aliexpress.com/... and you will not see a junk auto-translated page. Only if you manually type localized URL in the address bar, language context will changed as usual.
Safety
Risk impact
Aliexpress Global Site requires a number of risky permissions that can potentially harm your browser and steal your data. Exercise caution when installing this add-on. Review carefully before installing. We recommend that you only install Aliexpress Global Site if you trust the publisher.
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypass your security settings, and access your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.
Risk likelihood
Aliexpress Global Site has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on, especially ones with higher risk impact and/or higher risk likelihood.
