- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch rmi, 6 jierren lynAvoid this company, they are selling your browsing data to third parties. https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/qjdkq7/avast-antivirus-sells-user-browsing-data-investigation They claim they are now winding down that business, however, they do it only because of the pressure after being caught, I cannot trust them anymore. Not recommended, trust is hard to earn, but easy to lose, they do not appreciate it enough.
Another negative experience, it keeps installing without permission. Avast seems to be very eager to get their hands on your browsing data. - Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Rijkaard, 6 jierren lynI thought this was a great extension, until it was revealed that Avast is selling sensitive information about your browsing habits!! I have disabled it until Avast comes clean. It's completely disappointing that a company that is supposed to protect you is actually ACTING LIKE MALWARE!!!

6 jierren lyn pleatstThank you for your feedback. We were always trying to be transparent about this data sharing and recently we did even more changes to be more transparent about this. - Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch KxNdrLXKSUPmcImWBIYhr, 6 jierren lyn
- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Aragorn, 6 jierren lynAvast is using this extension and their products to spy on you, and then sell your browsing information to data brokers around the world.

Es gibt auch keine Möglichkeit die Blockierung zu umgehen außer das Add-On wieder zu deinstallieren. Was ich auch sofort machen werde.

- Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 15375616, 6 jierren lynCauses flashes of unstyled content in loads and loads and loads of sites (and has done for ages), to the point that it is hard to fathom how this passed QA and how the bug hasn't been fixed yet.

thank you for your review. This bug has been reported to our team. - Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Firefox-brûker 15297443, 6 jierren lynInstalled without my consent after using Avast Software Updater to update my Firefox (along with 1 additional extension).

6 jierren lyn pleatstHi,
thank you for review. This situation was most likely caused by scenario, where you had this extension already installed but disabled. There was a situation on mozilla side
https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2019/05/04/update-regarding-add-ons-in-firefox/
And most likely the Avast Software Updater updated firefox and due to this it brought fix for extensions and they got re-activated. - Wurdearring: 1 fan 5troch Nelson Rodrigues, 6 jierren lyn
