User Reviews

Once I installed this add-on, it immediately heightened my sense of smell, hearing as well as my libido. It's awesome. Update: During full moons, my hair starts to grow and I feel an urge to howl at the moon. Is that supposed to happen?

Is Background Page Requester 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.

Background Page Requester requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
