User reviews

it works but occasionally breaks request with query string which is not formatted in key-value pairs. e.g. http://foo/?non_keyvalue_pair_string => Internal Redirect => http://foo/?non_keyvalue_pair_string=

It does what it says. BUT, it breaks some websites. Biggest example is LinkedIn. Search, messaging and many other features stop working when this extension is active.
