User Reviews

Works like a charm, does exactly what it says it does! Increases browsing speed & privacy; would love to see a CDN emulator extension, disqus is extremely slow to load!

So far, so good. Disgust ... I mean disqus is terrible s/w, at least on mobile. Just slightly better than wordpress. But a quick test indicates that clicking will send me to where I want to go, not where disqus thinks I want to go at the moment.

Disqus redirection is blocked by our firewall - this plugin has saved me a ton of effort when it comes to getting comment links working. Not much noticeable impact on performance thus far!

Is disqus-undirect 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.

disqus-undirect 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.

disqus-undirect has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
