mis en ligne : il y a 9 heuresNothing in the extension changed - it’s open-source, so you can verify that yourself. What changed is how Mozilla labels privacy-related permissions.
The extension only uses an anonymous, randomly generated ID, and the id of the video that you liked/disliked.
• YouTube access - needed to read the current video ID and show its dislike count.
• RYD API access - needed for API requests and diagnostics.
• Online/activity data - viewing, liking, or disliking videos.
• Personally identifiable information - RYD’s random private user ID used to count votes, not your real identity.
• Website content - mainly the video ID.
The new labels sound scary, but they describe the same data the extension has always used.

- Noté 5 sur 5par JBoot8, il y a 35 minutesI was concerned about the new permissions required, but scrolled down and saw a reply from the developer explaining what was going on. Everything collected is only related to YouTube and is anonymized, the same as what previous versions were doing. The only thing that changed was how Mozilla classifies permissions.
Thank you to the dev for the explanation!Réponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 18 minutesThanks for taking your time read. I agree, this new system gives a very scary impression.
But in reality - the extension can only access these permissions on two sites - YouTube and it's own returnyoutubedislike - on all other sites it's not even allowed to "turn on".
Personally identifiable information - RYD’s randomly generated private user ID used to count votes, not your real identity.
Browsing activity - i.e. navigating to the next video, so that the next dislikes can be shown
Website content - i.e. the like\dislike container element
Website activithy - i.e. clicking like or dislike button.
As I already said - only on YouTube. Not everywhere. - Noté 5 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 19583727 de Firefox, il y a une heure

mis en ligne : il y a 28 minutesI would recommend to learn to read. At least before posting so categorically wrong.
The only data the extension can access is YouTube and its own returnyoutubedislike site.
Nothing in the extension changed - it’s open-source, so you can verify that yourself. What changed is how Mozilla labels privacy-related permissions.
"browsing activity" is the video url/id. And detecting that you navigated to the next video.
If you read carefully you'll see that this only applies to YouTube and RYD API - not all websites.

- Noté 5 sur 5par Dream, il y a une heurestop review bombing, it’s open-source. if you have a problem with the code, just show it.
- Noté 1 sur 5par gurei, il y a 2 heuresrecent update made me immediately uninstall. what in the world lmao
- Noté 5 sur 5par Koomongous, il y a 2 heuresI was concerned for a moment, but taking a look:
"From November 3, 2025, all new extensions must adopt the Firefox built-in data collection consent system. Extensions must state if and what data they collect or transmit. New versions and updates for add-ons created before November 3 don’t need to use this feature, but will have to at a later date."
This appears to apply in this case :) - Noté 5 sur 5par Nikitamce, il y a 2 heures
- Noté 5 sur 5par humble_fierfoxuser1, il y a 2 heuresGreat add-on. Decided to make an account just to give it 5 stars. A lot of the 1 star reviews are just xenophobic.
- Noté 5 sur 5par Artcas2, il y a 2 heuresSeeing the wave of negative reviews following the latest update, I decided to leave a 5-star rating to support you. Keep up the good work!

To the review bombers: the changed permissions request comes due to a new consent mechanism in Firefox, NOT because the Add-on steals your data! - Noté 3 sur 5par ONEEX, il y a 3 heures•I’m giving it a 3 for the policy – you’re either a developer or a politician🤡 – make up your mind!•

'squse me? - Noté 5 sur 5par serg, il y a 3 heuresJust a must have, an essential add-on. And very well made. And made by a good person, who supports freedom and democracy. What's not to like?
Also the latest update is excellent. I think I'll go support you on Patreon for the additional features - they look really neat and it's a good idea.
Please continue doing this. - Noté 5 sur 5par Vince, il y a 4 heuresFor those concerned about the new version, you can click "See all versions", download 3.0.0.18, extract with 7-Zip, and ask an AI to compare permissions and URL's with 4.0.6. It looks safe to me, but that's for you to decide.

you cannot review bomb because "dev is a russian spy", they support ukraine and even then it has no basis, let's not be silly.
