Summary

Flambé is inspired by the "Clear Tabs and Data" button available in plain sight on DuckDuckGo's mobile browser app.  I wanted that same useful button when ending a browsing session on Firefox so I decided to make this extension after rummaging through the existing extensions. 

Flambé does 2 things:
1. Clears your local browsing history, cache, cookies, and download history
2. Clears your open tabs, leaving you with an empty new tab to start fresh or close the browser entirely

You can checkout the source code here: https://github.com/designbystephen/flambe 

I hope you find it as useful as I do.

Safety

Risk impact

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

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.
