Is there any privacy related issue while using it? Like is it safe to log in to emails,twitter,etc. while having the extension enabled?
From my point of view, there isn't any security on the Internet at all. The work around to get better Security would be the use of Encryption which isn't accepted by many other sites. I would never read any of my companies or even private e-mails online, I use an e-mail client to download all received e-mails to my Desktop's and Laptop. The e-mails received by my Gmail account are also catched by my e-mail client and NOT keept on the Gmail account. I use as e-mail client TheBat. Facebook, Twitter and the likes are totally unsafe and prohibit to use in my company and by most of my customers as well. Same goes for services like Line etc. which didn't protecting any privacy! Anyway, it's all about what you need to privacy for! From my thinking, people who are using Facebook, Twitter and the likes, are not concerned of their privacy at all!
Yea, i read an article about this too. anyway it works well for what it is supposed to do. About TorrentFreak, they are doing business and earning money by promoting some P2P and VPN sites. i think it is owned by thepiratebay. I would never trust them when they say: What is the best...blabla. they are paid to make this kind of review.
