User Reviews

Users like anonymoX for enabling access to blocked content and general browsing, but multiple reviewers report slow speeds (poor video), media/images failing to load on certain sites, and a controversial SafeShop feature that alters search results and appears like adware/spyware. Occasional instability is also mentioned.
Pros
  • Effectively bypasses some regional blocks — users report it lets them access sites that would otherwise be unavailable.
  • Generally works and is praised by multiple users as a useful, practical add-on.
  • Good for casual browsing/reading (text-based content) rather than heavy media streaming.
Cons
  • Slow/limited speed — many users report buffering and poor video playback.
  • Images or media fail to load on some sites (examples cited: DeviantArt, Itch.io; YouTube/Discord video may not work).
  • Recently added "SafeShop" feature is widely criticized — it alters search results, appears ad/spyware-like and cannot be disabled.
  • Occasional instability or failures reported (some users say it stopped working suddenly).

Is anonymoX Safe?

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.

anonymoX requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details
  • Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

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 Add-ons Store, 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.

anonymoX has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
