High recommendation. Unlike others, it works perfectly.

This particular Chrome extension should be classified as malicious due to its ability to inject ad redirects into Google search links. As a result, users are often redirected to unintended web pages without their consent or knowledge. Such behavior is considered malware, and it poses a serious threat to the user's online privacy and security. Therefore, it is highly recommended that this extension be removed from the Chrome Web Store to prevent further harm to unsuspecting users. Although the extension's description mentions that the free version contains ads on the watchlist page, it fails to mention anything about redirection during regular browsing. This is where I draw the line. I am okay with banner ads on the extension itself, but it is not acceptable to add redirection to links that I browse. edit: Now the developer has replied that the ad redirection is mentioned on his website, but this admission is tucked away on an external website, not on the Chrome Web Store where potential users are making their decision to install. This lack of transparency is a major issue for me and the act of altering my web searches and directing me elsewhere without clear upfront disclosure crosses a line. It's especially concerning considering the stringent privacy regulations in Europe and my home country, Finland. I believe these undisclosed redirection practices could very well be illegal here. When I choose to add an extension from the Chrome Web Store, I do so with the expectation that it will enhance my browsing experience without compromising my online safety or privacy. The fact that this critical information about ad redirection is not readily available on the Chrome Store, but rather hidden on an external site, is misleading and unacceptable. Users should not have to investigate external sources to uncover such fundamental details about how an extension operates.

Great extension, thanks to the developers.
