** Note: the recent update doesn't really read your browsing history. That permission is required to support the enable/disable feature when you click on the app icon on the top right corner. You can verify that I do not read any of your browsing history at https://github.com/jianweichuah/miniyoutube. Also, if you feel like that feature is not necessary, I'd be happy to hear about it.**
