it now asks permission to view all of your browsing data and the contents of all pages you visit.
DON'T INSTALL THIS SPYWARE!!
The authors of 7TV refer to this article: blog.mozilla.org/addons/2025/10/23/data-collection-consent-changes-for-new-firefox-extensions/
This change took power on November 3rd. However, the last time I updated the extension was on 14th of November (you can see it by clicking RMB on the extension, then 'manage extension'), which proves their reason is made up.Utvecklarens svar
postad för 11 dagar sedanAs per the Mozilla article, developers had until the first half of 2026 to adhere to the changes. You can also view the exact changes we took for yourself: https://github.com/SevenTV/Extension/pull/1189/changes. - Betygsatt 5 av 5av Firefox-användare 19948776, för 12 dagar sedan

- Betygsatt 4 av 5av Firefox-användare 18749080, för 12 dagar sedanwhile it does work well (at least on twitch it did for me, cannot vouch for other platforms), this extension views/collects ALL of your browsing data and the contents of ALL web pages that you visit!
I understand it is needed in order to display your emotes and whatnot but in my opinion the devs should read out the relevant websites ONLY, not ALL of them.
Totally ridiculous, if you ask me.
I take my privacy quite seriously, hence my 1-star rating. Obviously, I've also uninstalled it.
Until the devs change this, my review shall remain neutral.

Edited on 25 May 2026:
Developer(s) have responded to my concerns - if what they claim is true, this is quite unfortunate.
Bumping up my rather negative 1 star to 4 stars.
I wish Mozilla would allow granular control over what websites are read/transmitted, meaning that this extension has to read any and all websites - it is something that the developers have no control over, sadly. They have come forward explaining what they collect and why, and I'm quite happy with that. The extension does work well, and if you cannot live without your animated emotes, well then you have no choice.
I also realised my negative sentiments are better directed at Mozilla and how they have implemented their data consent flow.
Thank you for responding @7tv team, I appreciated that.Utvecklarens svar
postad för 12 dagar sedanHello, I understand your concern. I'd like to make it clear that we are unable to specify which website(s) we ask data consent for. Firefox's data consent flow only gives us the option to specify whether or not we collect/transmit said data type. For more information, see: https://extensionworkshop.com/documentation/develop/firefox-builtin-data-consent/.
The "browsingActivity" data consent is exclusively used to transmit your user presence on Twitch/Kick, so that your cosmetics show up in chat. We do not store this data.
The "websiteContent" data consent is only there for the "/song" command, as it sends a snippet of the stream you're watching to the AudD Music Recognition API. - Betygsatt 1 av 5av Bisnesmies, för 12 dagar sedanExtension broke chat box so you have to update it and give your data as part of the update.

postad för 12 dagar sedanThe "browsingActivity" permissions is exclusively used to transmit your user presence, so that your cosmetics show up in chat. This has always been the case, but the consent screen is part of a newer Firefox initiative: https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2025/10/23/data-collection-consent-changes-for-new-firefox-extensions/ - Betygsatt 5 av 5av StefDarkBlood, för 13 dagar sedan
- Betygsatt 1 av 5av Erick4401, för 13 dagar sedanWhat is the reason for the change in the new collection of data? With how the internet is today I chose to disable the extension instead, if it's a final change I won't be using the extension anymore

Разработчик сообщает, что это расширение собирает: интернет-активность, содержимое веб-сайтов
Это означает, что расширение имеет полный контроль над вашими действиями в браузере. Оно способно перехватывать и анализировать историю посещений, поисковые запросы, переписку, а также конфиденциальные данные, включая логины, пароли и банковские реквизиты, вводимые на любых сайтах.
Удаляю и остальным советую. - Betygsatt 5 av 5av Nekim_kraqua, för 14 dagar sedan

postad för 14 dagar sedanUnfortunately a Twitch update caused the extension to break. We've submitted a fix as fast as we could, and are awaiting Mozilla approval for the update.
