A extensão está com um malware instalado, fazendo abrir outras páginas estranhas, de promoções. Não instalem.

I developed a GPTs that analyzes the data extracted with TBL Scraper, and I am extremely satisfied with the performance of this extension. It proves to be a powerful and reliable tool, perfect for automating my analyses. Kudos to the developers!
