User reviews

worked well, but youtube thinks it's an ad blocker
by So*****, 2025-04-07

Only tested this addon on youtube and music.youtube and it does kinda work on music.youtube. Kinda because it mutes the ads ✅, but the muting action or some action in this addon blockes the ads from autoplaying so I need to interact with the video player each time an ad is played.

Working on YT Note: there seems to be a pop-up about adblocker sometimes EX: when there are 2 ADs consecutive

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Ad Mute requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Ad Mute is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
