by Firefox user 17777531, 2 years agoHi, Since the last update of Firefox, about 8-10 days ago, the module no longer works on all my connections with Firefox. However, it still works with Chrome. (W10 pro 64 bits)

posted 2 years agoHello! Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention.
We recently upgraded our Firefox extension which should have fixed the bug causing the TinEye option to disappear from the right-click context menu. Please try to install the TinEye extension for Firefox once again and let us know if you experience any issues.
Please also note that if you have Firefox in “permanent private mode”, or set to not remember history or cookies, you will have to manually enable our extension in the add-ons manager to be allowed in private mode.
I hope this solves the problem, though please let me know if the issue persists and I'll be happy to look into this for you. Cheers!

- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 12796730, 13 days agoGot a new pop-up saying I had to share all my data or uninstall the extension. Fuck that. Definitely unistalling. There are already too many apps/services/whatever that try to harvest your data; I'm definitely not keeping an optional one. I guess the one point in their favor is that they notified me of it, but still, if the options are "let me harvest all your data carte blanche" and "uninstall," then there's not really a choice. I'm out, and everyone else should be too.

The TinEye Extension does not collect personal data or track the sites you visit. When you right-click an image and select 'Search image on TinEye,' this sends the image URL to our servers so you can see the search results on TinEye.com.
When you install our extension, we are required to get your permission to share these image URLs with the extension. This is the only data used for the reverse image search—TinEye does not collect or store any other information. - Rated 1 out of 5by Seddoo, 14 days agoTrying to get users to confirm their personal information with a forced window, as if it were a natural right to find out the sites they have entered, is data theft no matter where you look. It doesn't matter if I or someone else is looking for a similar photo, I don't have to give the producer of the program information about every site we visit, we're not. This issue may bother Mozilla Firefox a lot in the future. The decision is yours.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Feline17ff, 10 months agoSo I had to find a high-res image of a screenshot from a PDF but normal search engines weren't giving me anything.
And so I got this extension, and I looked it up, and it found me some a list of results.
I ordered them by size because I wanted the highest resolution.
It gave me a link to an article and image, both no longer available.
I looked them up on the wayback machine, and I didn't get anything for the article, but I did get the picture. And so I've got a really huge higher resolution image that I was looking for.
Thank you. <3 - Rated 4 out of 5by TheBigCheeseBurger, a year ago
