User Reviews
Simple and effective. I use this slider to temporarily reduce brightness when looking at Google Maps, which normally has completely washed-out, so almost invisible streets on its white background. This helps to make these invisible streets in Google Maps a bit more visible again. This extension is the best solution for the problem of "no visible streets in Google Maps" I've found so far!

Is Brightness Control 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.
Brightness Control requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

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