2021-04-05 Tariq Kamal I was using this extension for quite a bit, and honestly I didn't have an issue with the extension itself. What bothers me is that from what I can tell, the extension's homepage isn't accessible any more, and the extension source doesn't appear on GitHub. I mean… I don't know what's happening, but the fact that I can no longer review the source and contact the developers is a fairly concerning development. I've uninstalled the extension for now.

2018-04-28 Article_86 Thank you for this Add-On ! We need this more than ever and I say this with no bias whatsoever. I have investigated Flagged Sites and have found that it is indeed accurate. These Developers have taken on a MAMMOTH undertaking and I strongly urge them to continue in earnest. Congratulations and Kudos to them, but I must also WARN them to NEVER let this effort 'take on a Life of it's own'. IT WILL HAPPEN ... IT ALWAYS DOES. With that said, I recommend that everyone use the Add-On because no matter how 'smart' you are, it's incredibly easy to get mired in B.S. - Article_86
