User Reviews

While bookmark keywords with custom javascript are more versatile, Banger is easier to configure and, without having to query from DuckDuckGo, runs fairly fast!

Is Banger 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.

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

Risk impact analysis details
  • High Allows the extension to observe and analyze traffic in flight for the selected hosts.

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.

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