I consider amazon.nl, amazon.com.be, amazon.de etc to be "Amazon" websites with Amazon reviews. Yet I'm getting "this website is not supported" errors. The extension is pretty much useless to me and probably most non-USA customers. Sad.

It is really really bad. Trusted brands get an F Grade "High deception". Trusted Market leading Brands like Bosch. It doesn't tell you why it thinks its "high deception" it is basically just "Trust me bro".
And it also tells me that dropshipping junk on Amazon is "A" from Vendor A and "D" from Vendor B, what is itt now, it comes from the same droppshipping company.
Dont bother its absolute garbage.
