2023-05-30	Shameen Azeez	I've used this extension since 2008 (16 years!), it has some good early warning signs to stop you clicking bad links, and display a warning page if the site you're about to visit has an extremely poor security rating. However over the past year or so, features have been removed and replaced with adverts to upgrade to their premium subscription, and now I feel like this is more Adware than anything else, so sadly I will be uninstalling this for good. Perhaps this extension is still good when paid, but I have only used it on the free tier.
2023-05-26	Lautaro Martinez	le doy 2 estrellas por que te dice si una pagina es segura pero promocionan muy agresivamente el plan premium
2023-05-23	Alexander Mohr	Gotta love a company that spends several years harvesting user data for websites, to then flip a sub when they've got plenty of data. Perfect example of what companies do with you data behind the scenes. No telling what else they've scraped and sold to third parties outside of user reviews. Great app idea, time to bail though. Not like it was giving great results recently anyway. 90% of searches had one, maybe two active reviews. Then they decided to do popups and push their premium added "services", so no real reason to keep it around. If you're bailing, I suggest getting uBlock origin if you don't have it already. It's stopped me from many sites WOT decided were safe. I see other recent replies from the dev advising someone who found a unreviewed site to be told "Sorry about that, you can report it tho!" ... That should be your job now, not the users. No excuse to charge premium services and not do the work your app is suppose to do yourself. Trash.
2023-05-20	Misophoniq	Misleading practices. Plugin finds so called "security issues" on an isolated system with every possible security measure in place. Obviously, you are redirected to a page to pay money to have these non-existing issues removed.

2023-04-20	vin zheng	I like it and all but now, whenever I click the extension, it just shows a 35% off discount thing. And whenever I click the "x," it just exits out the extension. Please fix this

2023-03-18	Вячеслав Ровнов	Ерунда. Требуют подписку за бесполезные функции. Оценки подсчитаны от балды, к действительностям сайта не имеют никого отношения
2023-03-18	Андрей Осипов	Впечатления хорошие, теперь я могу быть спокоен за свои данные. Разработчики, благодарю вас.
2023-03-13	Farid	Смысл от бесплатной версии, если нет значка репутации сайта? в помойку
2023-03-11	Mark B	Installing and using the extension for the first time gives a bad impression by doing some dubious security scan to sell you a subscription. From an effectiveness standpoint, it didn't flag newer phishing sites that I tested it again other than noting there was no information. I suppose that's the idea in terms of judging by community reputation, but just because a site doesn't get a red or yellow icon doesn't mean it's safe. Also, the community reputation model can breakdown when the rated site is controversial such as those belonging to political figures. For example, one website I checked of a sitting elected official was marked as 18+ and gruesome. The site was just fine but it seems opposition partisans wanted to make it look bad.

2023-02-08	Fusion “Zachrysia” Developer	Never rely on 1 thing. Always be skeptical and always hesitate to click on new websites. As with everything, there are new Phishing websites published several times a day. No single service will let you know about all of them. WOT is no exception. However, the more programs you have to warn you about KNOWN websites, the better off you will be. WOT is a good service for helping people remember that not all websites are good.
2023-02-01	Серый Гром	Робит и бесплатная
2023-01-14	MaxWatch	Incroyablement efficace ! Cette extension montre bien que même les sites à l'air le plus innocent peuvent cacher de mauvaises surprises... Je me demanderais presque pourquoi Google ne propose pas de l'ajouter par défaut !
2023-01-13	John McCall	Great extension. Only problem is a lot of features are behind a paywall.
